Let us just mention two of the most important reasons. On the one hand, a focus on the practical side of mathematics presents a convincing and motivating answer to the typical student question: ?Why study mathematics?? On the other hand, education policy seems inclined to move in this direction by implementing international testing, curricula and catalogues of skills. The most important feature of this book is that the authors speak directly to you, the mathematics teachers. The authors attempt to draw you into a continuous dialogue about activities you are asked to engage in as learners. You are asked to do something, and through doing and reflecting you will gain first-hand experience of new approaches and materials. In this way, you can learn to teach applicable mathematics to your students using your own experience as learners of applicable mathematics, motivated and supported by the book. Here applicable mathematics education is the phrase we use to describe reality-based mathematics education. Reality-based mathematics relies heavily on problem solving and a positive disposition to engage with mathematics. Modelling reality and simulating selected aspects of reality are other pillars of reality-based mathematics education. 410 0$aSpringer Texts in Education,$x2366-7672 606 $aMathematics?Study and teaching  606 $aTeaching 606 $aLearning 606 $aInstruction 606 $aCritical Thinking 606 $aLife skills 606 $aMathematics Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O25000 606 $aTeaching and Teacher Education$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O31000 606 $aLearning & Instruction$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O22000 606 $aCritical Thinking$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O53030 606 $aLife Skills$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/O53040 615 0$aMathematics?Study and teaching . 615 0$aTeaching. 615 0$aLearning. 615 0$aInstruction. 615 0$aCritical Thinking. 615 0$aLife skills. 615 14$aMathematics Education. 615 24$aTeaching and Teacher Education. 615 24$aLearning & Instruction. 615 24$aCritical Thinking. 615 24$aLife Skills. 676 $a511.8071 676 $a511.8071 700 $aMaaß$b Jürgen$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut$0851212 702 $aO?Meara$b Niamh$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aJohnson$b Patrick$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 702 $aO?Donoghue$b John$4aut$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910299504603321 996 $aMathematical Modelling for Teachers$92523938 997 $aUNINA
