Introduction

This e-book contains videos and interviews prepared by our students as part of the eTwinning project "Modeling Life" on "What can Math be used for?".

About the "Modeling Life"

In this project our students will apply mathematics to solve real-life problems, make a mathematical model that describes, solve and validates their problem, and improve their model. During the project, mathematical modeling questions will be produced by the teachers involved in the project and these questions will be applied in mathematics lessons with teachers and students in different schools. At the end of the project, expected that students write their own mathematical modeling questions and solution reports.
