Enhancing Mathematical Competencies through Practical Modeling and Project-Based Learning: An Interdisciplinary Approach in Secondary Education

This research presents a comprehensive pedagogical framework that integrates Project-Based Learning (PBL) with empirical field activities to enhance mathematical modeling competencies among secondary school students. The study employs a mixed-method approach, combining theoretical modeling with practical implementation using Python programming for data analysis. Key findings indicate that students engaged in interdisciplinary modeling tasks showed a 28% increase in analytical problem-solving efficiency compared to traditional learning environments.
