Abstract

This study investigates secondary mathematics pre-service teachers (PSTs)’ opportunities to learn about algebra related to the modeling standards described in Common Core State Standards. Analysis of interviews with instructors and PSTs, and course materials from required mathematics and mathematics education courses, we report concentrations of opportunities provided to PSTs to learn about and learn to teach algebra related to each modeling process. Teacher educators can examine PSTs’ opportunities to learn about algebra and modeling reported in this study to find gaps in their programs and refine their instructions about modeling in algebra.
