Hyunyi Jung; Corey Brady – Mathematical Thinking and Learning: An International Journal, 2025
In this article, we investigated how a class engaged in whole-class discussions of modeling solutions, across two different types of modeling tasks: a Model Eliciting Activity (MEA) and a Three-Act Task. We analyzed whole-class discourse as small groups presented and responded to each other's solutions to a MEA and a Three-Act Task. We have also…

Jonathan Brown; Erin Turner; Delia Sotelo Fierros – Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, 2025
Mathematical modeling involves using mathematics to represent, analyze, and make predictions or decisions about real- world situations. Garfunkel and Montgomery (2016) elaborate on six components of the mathematical modeling process, including identifying the problem, making assumptions and identifying variables, doing the math, analyzing and…
