Learning Mathematical Modelling: How to design visual-formed Student’s Worksheet Using Traditional Food Context

Abstract

This article studied designing a Visual-formed Student’s Worksheet the traditional food context under a mathematical modelling framework. This article only discusses the preliminary stages of the developed students’ worksheet. The preliminary stage covers two steps; there are analysis and design steps. The analysis step focused on the analyzing of the curriculum, that is in the form of students' difficulty in real-world problem solving, as well as in the designing step that focused on the initial design of students’ worksheet based on the principles of developing math modelling problems that put forward by Catherine Paolucci and Helena Wessels so that the resulting prototype of students’ worksheet for teaching mathematical modelling.
