Mathematization is the process of thinking about and representing real-world problems mathematically. It involves identifying the key variables and constraints of a problem, simplifying it, and translating it into a mathematical representation or model. Some important steps in mathematization are formulating the problem mathematically, identifying relevant concepts, converting it into a mathematical problem, solving the problem, and interpreting the mathematical solution back in real-world terms. The document provides examples of mathematization problems and encourages letting students formulate problems themselves in order to change the way learning and assessment is approached.

1. MATHEMATIZATION – CORE
SKILL Pramod Kumar T.K.

2. How many words can you write in half a
minute?
Write down the number on a piece of paper

3. HAVE YOU USED MATHEMATICS TO ANSWER
EARLIER QUESTION

4. MATHEMATIZATION
Mathematization is a process of thinking about
and making sense of the world with a
mathematical lens.

5. Find out the slowest train during
monsoon
Use the sticky note on the jamboard and give
the answer

7. Identify the problem in the context

8. Organizing the problem with the help of
Mathematical concepts

9. Converting the real problem into a
Mathematical Problem

10. Solving the Mathematical Problem

11. Making sense of Mathematical solutions in real
life

13. HOW TO FIND THE CENTRE OF
THE STRUCTURE?

14. FORMULATION- KEY TO
MATHEMATIZATION
identifying the mathematical aspects of a
problem situated in a real-world context and
identifying significant variables
 recognizing mathematical structure (including
regularities, relationships and patterns) in
problems or in situations
simplifying a situation or problem in order to
make it amenable to mathematical analysis

15. identifying constraints and assumptions behind
any mathematical modeling and simplifications
understanding and explaining the relationships
between the context-specific language of a
problem and the symbolic and formal language
needed to represent it mathematically
 translating a problem into mathematical
language or representation

16. representing a situation mathematically, using
appropriate variables, symbols, diagrams and
standard models
 representing a problem in a different way,
including organizing it according to
mathematical concepts and making appropriate
assumptions

17. LET US CHANGE THE
WAY
Start from life and connect to classroom
learning
Use 5Es
Engage- Explore-Explain-Elaborate-Evaluate
Learning of Assessment to be changed …For
and As
 Let them formulate
Give opportunity to Interpret and Evaluate

18. Thank You.
