Features of common problem-solving models in mathematics and science, as well as those found in business and industry today, are discussed. Commonalties in the models are used to advance a case for interdisciplinary or integrated instruction in mathematics, science and technology. The Integrated Mathematics, Science and Technology (IMaST) program's problem-solving model is presented as an example of a curriculum project that draws upon the commonalties in the problem-solving models as a basis for a seventh grade integrated curriculum.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
