This book contains suggestions for and reflections on the teaching, learning and assessing of mathematical modelling and applications in a rapidly changing world, including teaching and learning environments. It addresses all levels of education from universities and technical colleges to secondary and primary schools. Sponsored by the International Community of Teachers of Mathematical Modelling and Applications (ICTMA), it reflects recent ideas and methods contributed by specialists from 30 countries in Africa, the Americas, Asia, Australia and Europe. Inspired by contributions to the Fourteenth Conference on the Teaching of Mathematical Modelling and Applications (ICTMA14) in Hamburg, 2009, the book describes the latest trends in the teaching and learning of mathematical modelling at school and university including teacher education. The broad and versatile range of topics will stress the international state-of-the-art on the following issues:
Theoretical reflections on the teaching and learning of modelling
Modelling competencies
Cognitive perspectives on modelling
Modelling examples for all educational levels
Practice of modelling in school and at university level
Practices in Engineering and Applications

Gabriele Kaiser is a Professor of Mathematics Education at the University of Hamburg. She holds a master’s degree as a teacher for mathematics and humanities and completed her doctorate in mathematics education on applications and modelling. She is Editor-in-Chief of “ZDM – The International Journal on Mathematics Education (formerly Zentralblatt fuer Didaktik der Mathematik) and since July 2007 she serves as president of the “International Community of Teachers of Modelling and Applications” (ICTMA), an ICMI affiliated Study Group.
Werner Blum is a Professor of Mathematics Education at the University of Kassel. He got a Ph.D. in Pure Mathematics in 1970 from the University of Karlsruhe. His main research areas include empirical studies into the teaching and learning of mathematics and the professional knowledge of mathematics teachers, national and international comparative studies (especially PISA), quality development in mathematics teaching as well as applications and modelling in mathematics education.
Rita Borromeo Ferri is a Guest Professor of Mathematics Education at the University of Hamburg. She holds a master’s degree as a teacher for mathematics and geography and completed her doctorate in mathematics education on mathematical thinking styles and her post-doc study on applications and modelling. She taught several years in school and got a teaching award of the Faculty of Education at University of Hamburg.
Applications and modelling and their learning and teaching in school and university have become a prominent topic in the last decades in view of the world-wide importance of the usage of mathematics in science, technology and everyday life. Trends in Teaching and Learning of Mathematical Modelling provides the reader ship with an overview on the newest international trends and developments on the teaching and learning of modelling from various theoretical and practical perspectives. The comprehensive overview on the most recent empirical research reflecting the development and promotion of modelling competencies at various age levels allows insight into possible affective and cognitive blockages and barriers for students’ modelling processes and its teaching. The papers on the usage of technology describe new possibilities, how the usage of technology can inspire the teaching and learning of modelling. International modelling projects offer chances and possibilities to enrich the teaching and learning of mathematical modelling at secondary and tertiary level and describe challenging modelling examples and their possible usage in school and university. The necessary change of teacher education towards an inclusion of mathematical modelling is reflected from different perspectives and challenging examples are given.
The contributing authors are influential members of the group “International Community of Teachers of Modelling and Applications” and important researchers in mathematics and mathematics education. The book will be of interest to mathematics educators, teacher educators, researchers, education administrators, curriculum developers, teachers and student teachers.
