title = "Learning About Modeling in Teacher Preparation Programs",
abstract = " This study explores opportunities that secondary mathematics teacher preparation programs provide to learn about modeling in algebra. Forty-eight course instructors and ten focus groups at five universities were interviewed to answer questions related to modeling. With the analysis of the interview transcripts and related course materials, we found few opportunities for PSTs to engage with the full modeling cycle. Examples of opportunities to learn about algebraic modeling and the participants{\textquoteright} perspectives on the opportunities can contribute to the study of modeling and algebra in teacher education.",
