RESEARCH
​The driving questions this project seeks to answer are:
-
What are the associations between teachers’ attitudes about mathematics, mathematical knowledge for teaching, and understanding of modeling before and after targeted PD in mathematical modeling?
-
What aspects of teaching modeling to elementary students are challenging for teachers?
-
In what ways is modeling exhibited in elementary grades mathematics classrooms?
