This volume is based on results from an NSF-supported project aimed at clarifying the nature of principles that govern the effective use of merging new research designs in mathematics and science education. A primary goal is to describe several of the most important types of research designs that: have been pioneered recently by mathematics and science educators; have distinctive characteristics when they are used in projects that focus on mathematics and science education; have proven to be especially productive for investigating the kinds of complex, interacting and adapting systems that...

As we enter the 21st century, there is an urgent need for new approaches to mathematics education emphasizing its relevance in young learners futures. "Modeling Students Mathematical Modeling Competencies" explores the vital trend toward using real-world problems as a basis for teaching mathematics skills, competencies, and applications. Blending theoretical constructs and practical considerations, the book presents papers from the latest conference of the ICTMA, beginning with the basics (Why are models necessary? Where can we find them?) and moving through intricate concepts of how...
