From this page, you may access a range of support materials related to mathematical modelling. The resources are designed to meet at least two purposes:

1. To support students, parents and team supervisors as they prepare for the International Mathematical Modeling Challenge (IM²C).

2. To encourage and support the greater use of mathematical modelling more generally as part of mathematics teaching and learning in schools.

The main aim of the resource material, and of the IM²C, is to promote mathematical modelling and encourage teachers and students to explore the application of mathematics in real situations to solve important problems.

The supporting resources are presented in two forms:

Separate elements are available via the menu items at the left of the page - these can be accessed selectively according to the purpose at hand.

The materials have also been consolidated into a downloadable guidebook.

The materials both behind the menu items, and in the guidebook, provide example problems and practice activities, along with theoretical frameworks, to develop and enhance students' ability to visualise, understand and apply mathematics in real-world contexts, providing a link between theory and real-world application.

The "Mathematical Modelling - A guidebook for teachers and teams" may be downloaded, copied, shared and distributed freely to encourage students to participate in the IM²C.

COMAP presents a series of modules designed for teaching mathematics through the modeling of real-world phenomena. Most modules are suitable for use in high school classes, and some can be used in middle school, undergraduate courses, and in teacher education. Each module in the series is built around several classroom activities. Each module includes student activity pages, teaching notes, and answers. Teaching notes and answers are in two-column format at the beginning of the module. Student activity pages are in full-page format at the end of the module. Since technology plays a key role in mathematical modeling, most modules in this series offer opportunities to apply one or more forms of technology, such as graphing calculators and/or online graphing utilities, spreadsheets, and geometric utilities.

Getting started with math modeling can be both puzzling and fun. Some students who have always succeeded in straightforward theoretical mathematics find it disconcerting when they're not able to go directly into their math toolkit for answers, and instead must spend time defining the problem and its variables, making assumptions, researching, and brainstorming. It is by utilizing the modeling process together with the math they know that students are able to find a solution and then analyze and assess that solution.

If you want to take on real-world problems, but are having trouble thinking outside traditional math operations, the resources in this section will give you the skills and mathematical modeling savvy you need to gain insight and to pose real solutions. The freely available handbooks Math Modeling: Getting Started and Getting Solutions and Math Modeling: Computing and Communicating, the instructive video series in math modeling, the sample problems and winning solution papers, and the tips for teams participating in the Challenge all provide a means for learning math modeling, either as a Challenge contestant, or simply as a motivated student with an interest in applied math. A solution paper template has been provided for teams wishing to use it.
