Real Problem Solving and Mathematical Modelling The important features of the task: The problem: problem must be real and connected to the students Aim is for the students to transforming the real-life problem into a mathematical problem

Real WorldMathematical World Real World Problem Real World Situation Mathematical Problem Mathematical Solution and a Mathematical Model

Outline of the Mathematical Modelling Process for the Students Identify the actual problem Set up a model Formulate a mathematical problem Find a mathematical solution Interpret the solution Compare with the original solution Write the solution/ report Real life situation

Challenges of Math Modelling in school Selecting tasks that are relevant and appropriate Helping students connect with the task Helping students look at the real world problem with mathematical eyes Helping students pose mathematical questions from a real world situation Moving from specific to the general solution

Using Problem-based learning (PBL) to overcome some of the challenges Using scenarios to connect students to the real world Focusing on what the students know from the scenarios and what they need to know Allowing students to pose and frame their own mathematical questions Allowing students to plan strategies to solve the problem

Exemplar Objective: Using the scenario of preparedness for natural disasters to lead students to examine estimates, probability in preparing an evacuation center School level: Grade 8 Lesson plan will covered over 2 lessons A video on tsunami can be used to introduce the lesson

Scenario 1 You are the Director of Planning in a town along the South coast of Japan. The population of the town is about 20,000 people. The Government is concerned about the safety of the people in case of natural disasters. What do you know? What do you need to know?

Scenario 2 The Minister of Education asks you to plan an evacuation center for the town which will be used during an earthquake or a Tsunami. Your task is to lead a team of planners to design the evacuation centre and submit it to the government

What do you know? What do you need to know? In your group, write down the questions you want to ask. What other information do you need? What mathematics questions can you ask? What information do you need to answer the questions?
