Modelling in Ontario: Success in Moving Along the Continuum

From the research presented on mathematical modelling at ICMI-Study 14, it appears that modelling is occurring in isolated cases in classrooms around the world. In Ontario, Canada, however, modelling is embedded as a system-wide focus in secondary school mathematics education. This paper discusses the development and implementation of modelling in the province and describes the “levers” that make the development and implementation of a modelling curriculum possible and the “barriers” and challenges that are being addressed.
