While many of the old standards are modifications ofthe existing standards, the process of mathematical modeling introduced by the Common Core State Standards for Mathematics is one of the major changes. Modeling is a way to link the classroom to real world problems and enables students to problem solve, think critically, collaborate with other students, and use a variety of mathematical tools to answer problems. We first explore modeling within the Common Core State Standards Initiative for Mathematics since it is not only one of the eight standards for mathematical practice, and one of six domains in the high school, but also because modeling is integrated throughout the other domain’s standards. We then explore how modeling will be assessed, examine problems that could be used within the classroom, and discuss why modeling is an effective framework for a classroom’s curriculum.  \nACKNOWLEDGMENTS  \nI would like to thank my advisor, Dr. Ted Wendt, whose input was invaluable. Without your persistence patience, and faith in me this thesis would not have been completed. I would also like to thank my both readers, Dr. Virginia Cooper and Professor Jack Oberweiser for all oftheir time and input. Dr. Cooper, throughout my time at Carroll College you have helped me immensely to become a stronger writer and I will be forever grateful. Jack, I hope that someday I can be half the mathematics teacher you are, thank you for everything you have taught me. To my husband, Michael, thank you for your endless love and support in anything that I do. I could not have completed this without your help with Emma. Finally, to my daughter Emma, may your endless curiosity and love for new things never die. I hope that your math education will be one that I envision with modeling as its core.  \nTABLE OF CONTENTS  \nINTRODUCTION .........................................................................................................................................1  \nTHE COMMON CORE ................................................................................................................................3  \nMODELING WITH MATHEMATICS ........................................................................................................7  \nASSESSMENT OF MODELING .............................................................................................................. 12  \nMODELING IN THE CLASSROOM ....................................................................................................... 23  \nMODELING AS THE FRAMEWORK ..................................................................................................... 29  \nCONCLUSION .......................................................................................................................................... 33  \nRESOURCES ............................................................................................................................................. 35  \nAPPENDIX A: Modeling Standards .......................................................................................................... 37  \nAPPENDIX B: The Eight Standards for Mathematical Practice................................................................ 40  \nAPPENDIX C: Teacher Resources ............................................................................................................ 44  \nTABLE OF FIGURES  \nFigure 1: CCSSM Modeling Cycle............................................................................................... 10  \nFigure 2: Sample SBAC Question for the 11th Grade........................................................","cbCail2ErM0kd8ID","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCail2ErM0kd8ID","pdf",1414361,65,"English","# INTRODUCTION\n# THE COMMON CORE\n# MODELING WITH MATHEMATICS\n# ASSESSMENT OF MODELING\n# MODELING IN THE CLASSROOM\n# MODELING AS THE FRAMEWORK\n# CONCLUSION\n# RESOURCES\n# APPENDIX A: Modeling Standards\n# APPENDIX B: The Eight Standards for Mathematical Practice\n# APPENDIX C: Teacher Resources","[{\"question\":\"What change does the Common Core State Standards introduce for mathematics education?\",\"answer\":\"The Common Core State Standards for Mathematics introduce mathematical modeling as a major change in how students engage with math concepts.\"},{\"question\":\"How does math modeling connect classroom learning to real-world problems?\",\"answer\":\"Modeling uses mathematics to represent real-world problems, helping students analyze situations, make predictions, and apply mathematical tools to answer questions.\"},{\"question\":\"How will modeling be assessed in the K-12 classroom?\",\"answer\":\"The review explores assessment approaches for modeling, including problems and evaluation methods that could be used to measure student understanding.\"}]","The Role of Math Modeling in the Common Core - A Review of Math Modeling in the K-12 Classroom | PDF",1791061775,164]
