TEACHING MATHEMATICS THROUGH A PERSONALIZED APPROACH TO DEVELOP MATHEMATICAL MODELING COMPETENCE FOR GRADE 11 STUDENTS
Keywords
Abstract
Mathematical modeling competence plays an important role in helping students apply mathematical knowledge to solve real-world problems. However, the development of this competence for Grade 11 students in mathematics teaching at the upper secondary level remains limited because insufficient attention has been paid to learner differences. This study aims to propose and implement a personalized mathematics teaching process to develop mathematical modeling competence for Grade 11 students. Based on theoretical research and pedagogical experimentation, the article constructs a teaching process associated with real-life situations. The findings indicate that personalized mathematics teaching contributes to improving students’ ability to identify problems, construct and solve mathematical models, and interpret results in practical contexts. The study also provides additional practical evidence for teachers in developing mathematical modeling competence for Grade 11 students
