The main objective is to promote reflection on: the opportunities that inclusion of more modelling and applications tasks in your teaching practice could afford you and your students. the difficulties and obstacles which have to be overcome. Objectives
We will try to reach a consensus on: The opportunities that modelling and applications tasks could open both to our students and to our teaching. The difficulties and obstacles that we probably will face. Possible ways to overcome them. Outcomes This consensus could be the starting point for a real and determined change in your teaching practices: the next modules will give you guidance and support.

Summarising arguments Write up again a final list with the main: of modelling and applications tasks at school. Arguments for a wider use Difficulties which hinder a wider use
Looking for new arguments Read the text “arguments and obstacles for the inclusion of modelling and applications taks” (Blum and Niss, 1991). • Do you agree with them? • Is there something you will like to comment on? • Would you like to modify your previous arguments? • Would you like to modify your previous difficulties and obstacles?
Being postive… Do you think it is possible to overcome these difficulties? What can you do?
