High School Mathematics
Conceptual Category: Modeling
Examples:
• Estimating how much water and food is needed for emergency relief in a devastated city of 3 million
people, and how it might be distributed.
• Planning a table tennis tournament for 7 players at a club with 4 tables, where each player plays
against each other player.
• Designing a layout of the stalls in a school fair so as to raise as much money as possible.
• Analyzing stopping distance for a car.
• Modeling savings account balance, bacterial colony growth, or investment growth.
• Engaging in critical path analysis, e.g., applied to turnaround of an aircraft at an airport.
• Analyzing risk in situations such as extreme sports, pandemics, and terrorism.
• Relating population statistics to individual predictions.
The basic modeling cycle is:
(1) identifying variables in the situation and selecting those that represent essential features,
(2) formulating a model by creating and selecting geometric, graphical, tabular, algebraic, or statistical
representations that describe relationships between the variables,
(3) analyzing and performing operations on these relationships to draw conclusions,
(4) interpreting the results of the mathematics in terms of the original situation,
(5) validating the conclusions by comparing them with the situation, and then either improving the model or, if it is
acceptable,
(6) reporting on the conclusions and the reasoning behind them. Choices, assumptions, and approximations are
present throughout this cycle.

Key CCSS Summary
These Standards are not intended to be new
names for old ways of doing business. They
are a call to take the next step. It is time for
states to work together to build on lessons
learned from two decades of standards based
reforms. It is time to recognize that standards
are not just promises to our children, but
promises we intend to keep. (page 5)
1 Make sense of problems and persevere in
solving them.
• Mathematically proficient students start by explaining to themselves
the meaning of a problem and looking for entry points to its solution.
• They analyze givens, constraints, relationships, and goals.
• They make conjectures about the form and meaning of the solution
and plan a solution pathway rather than simply jumping into a solution
attempt.
• They consider analogous problems, and try special cases and simpler
forms of the original problem in order to gain insight into its solution.
… more
• They monitor and evaluate their progress and change course
if necessary.
• Older students might, depending on the context of the
problem, transform algebraic expressions or change the
viewing window on their graphing calculator to get the
information they need.
• Mathematically proficient students can explain
correspondences between equations, verbal descriptions,
tables, and graphs or draw diagrams of important features
and relationships, graph data, and search for regularity or
trends.
… more
• Younger students might rely on using concrete objects
or pictures to help conceptualize and solve a problem.
• Mathematically proficient students check their answers
to problems using a different method, and they
continually ask themselves, “Does this make sense?”
• They can understand the approaches of others to
solving complex problems and identify
correspondences between different approaches.

Challenge
Consider the Olympic data set, and the research
question:
Will women ever run faster than men in the
200-meter race, and if yes, when?
Design a task (lesson) that involves the above data and
question. Include in the task connections to a
conceptual category, cluster and important standards.
More importantly for our current discussion, connect
the task Practice #1.
