Reviews

""This is an important resource for teachers of mathematical modeling. It offers a general framework for the fundamental ideas involved in both mathematical modeling and the enterprise of teaching it, and it sums up and explains the relevant empirical research. It contains concrete illustrations of classroom modeling activities and highlights several case studies of implementation of mathematical modeling in mathematics curricula."" - Paul J. Campbell, Mathematics Magazine ""It is, in my view, the way mathematics education should be done. And if it is any indication of the quality other volumes in the IMPACT series, this volume on mathematical modeling recommends those other volumes as well."" - Michael N. Fried, Mathematical Thinking and Learning
