  EMAC 2019 UNSW Canberra, Australia 26th Nov–29th Nov 2019 This Special Section of the ANZIAM Journal (Electronic Supplement) contains the refereed papers from the 14th Engineering Mathematics and Applications Conference (EMAC2019), which was held at the UNSW Canberra, Australia from 26th November to 29th November 2019. EMAC is held under the auspices of the Engineering Mathematics Group (EMG), which is a special interest group of the Australian and New Zealand Industrial and Applied Mathematics division of the Australian Mathematics Society. This conference provides a forum for researchers interested in the development and use of mathematical methods in engineering and applied mathematics, and aims to foster interactions between mathematicians and engineers, from both academia and industry. A further theme of the conference is the mathematical education of applied mathematicians and engineers. The event attracted participants from around the globe, including: New Zealand, Saudi Arabia, United Kingdom, Japan and Australia. The invited speakers at the 2019 meeting crossed the spectrum of specialities in engineering, mathematics, education and industry. They were: Alexander Kalloniatis (Defence Science and Technology Group), Robert K. Niven (UNSW Canberra), Katherine Seaton (La Trobe University) and Antoinette Tordesillas (University of Melbourne). All of the articles included in the EMAC 2019 Proceedings have been critically peer reviewed to the usual standards of the ANZIAM Journal. EMAC 2019 Organising Committee The conference organising committee were Fiona Richmond, Zlatko Jovanoski (Director), Leesa Sidhu, Duncan Sutherland, Fangbao Tian, Isaac Towers, Timothy Trudgian and Simon Watt. The invited speakers were chosen by a committee of experts including Alys Clark, Jennifer Flegg, Bronwyn Hajek (EMG Chair), Zlatko Jovanoski, Dann Mallet, Robert Niven, Brandon Pincombe, Melanie Roberts (Chair) and Harvinder Sidhu.

 A investigação apresentada, situada no campo da Modelagem Matemática na perspectiva da Educação Matemática, é resultado de um curso desenvolvido com acadêmicos de Pedagogia da Universidade Estadual do Centro-Oeste do Paraná, UNICENTRO. E, mais precisamente, sob uma postura fenomenológica, foi construída a partir da seguinte interrogação: O que se revela sobre a Modelagem Matemática na formação inicial de pedagogos? Esta que permitiu compreender e interpretar, a partir da argumentação de acadêmicos de Pedagogia, que atividades desta natureza contribuem para uma formação inicial mais significativa na área de Matemática e para a reconstrução dos significados da Matemática e, também, para o desenvolvimento de habilidades indispensáveis à docência, como autonomia, criatividade, criticidade e reflexividade.Palavras-chave: Educação Matemática.  Formação de professores. Modelagem Matemática.THE MATHEMATICAL FORMATION IN PEDAGOGY’S: course learning through mathematical modeling Abstract: This presented investigation, located in Mathematical Modeling field in Mathematics Education perspective, is the result of a course developed with Pedagogy academics from Paraná Midwest State University, UNICENTRO. And, more precisely, under a phenomenological position, was built from the following question: What does it reveal about Mathematical Modeling in the pedagogue’s initial education? This one, which allowed to understand and interpret, from the academic’s discussion in the Pedagogy course, that activities from this origin contribute for an initial education more meaningful in Mathematics field and to the Mathematics meaning reconstruction and, also, to the development of necessary skills to teaching, as autonomy, creativity, criticism and reflexion.Keywords: Mathematics Education.  Teacher’s Formation. Mathematical Modeling.FORMACIÓN EN MATEMÁTICAS EN EL CURSOR DE PEDAGOGIA: apredizaje a partir del modelado de matemáticasResumen: La investigación presentada en el campo del Modelado Matemático en la perspectiva de la Educación de Matemáticas es el resultado del desarrollo con académicos de Pedagogía de la Universidad Estatal del Centro-Oeste de Paraná- UNICENTRO. Precisamente bajo una postura fenomenológica, se construyó a partir del siguiente interrogantes: ¿Lo que se revela sobre el Modelado Matemático en la formación inicial de pedagogos? Está que permitió comprender e interpretar, a partir de argumentaciones de académicos de Pedagogía, que actividades de esta naturaleza contribuyen a una formación inicial más significativa en la área de Matemática y para la reconstrucción de los significados de las Matemáticas, y también, para el desarrollo de habilidades indispensables para la docencia, como autononomía, creatividad, criticidad y reflexividad .Palabras clave: Educación de Matemáticas. Formación de Profesores. Modelado de Matemáticas.

This study was done to determine the changes in belief of pre-service elementary teachers towards mathematics in mathematics education course and to address the effect of this change on gender and academic success variables. The study was designed according to the panel study model of longitudinal research method. 92 pre-services who are educating in primary school teaching department of a state university in 2013-2014 academic years formed the sample of research. As data collection tool “Mathematics Belief Scale” that was developed by Steiner (2007) and its reliability, validity and language equivalency in Turkish form that was done by Masal and Takunyacı (2012), was used. In analyzing of data paired samples t-test and for repeated measures two way ANOVA techniques were used. At the end of research, positive change was observed in beliefs of pre-service teachers towards mathematics within the process; also it was found that gender and academic success variables have no effect on beliefs of pre-services towards mathematics. Keywords: Pre-service elementary school, belief , mathematics belief scale, mathematics education
