Abstract EN
Mathematical modelling has often been emphasized at the secondary level, but more research is needed at the elementary level.
This paper serves to summarize what is known about elementary mathematical modelling to guide future research.
A targeted and general literature search was conducted and studies were summarized based on five categories: content of mathematical modelling intervention, assessment data collected, unit of analysis studied, population, and effectiveness.
It was found that there were three main units of analysis into which the studies could be categorized: representational and conceptual competence, models created, and student beliefs.
The main findings from each of these units of analysis are discussed along with future research that is needed.
