Channel: European Schoolnet
Date: 30/05/2018

The webinar took place in the Scientix online meeting room on Friday 19 February 2016 at 18:00 Central European Time.

Webinar outline:
Over the past two decades, mathematical modeling has been increasingly viewed as an educational approach to mathematics education from elementary levels to higher education. In educational settings, mathematical modeling has been considered a way of improving students’ ability to solve problems in real life.

In this perspective, in this webinar Mr Mehmet Basaran gives some examples of mathematical modeling of real life problems. He also presents how we use mathematical modeling in STEM education and in IBDP (International Baccalaureate Diploma Program).

About the presenter:
Mehmet Basaran is the Scientix Deputy-Ambassador for Turkey. He has been working as an IB mathematics teacher at the SANKO Private Science and Technology High School. His main research area in the field of education is STEM education and International Baccalaureate Diploma Program (IBDP). Currently, he is developing his PhD in the field of education at Gaziantep University, Turkey. He has also been working on mathematical modeling of real life examples for teaching mathematics and has been involved in many national projects and international projects such as Erasmus+ projects, Ingenious etc.
