Abstract
This chapter provides a brief overview of the state of the art in research and curricula on mathematical modelling and applications of mathematics in education. Following a brief illustration of the nature of mathematical modelling in educational practice, research in real-world applications and mathematical modelling in mathematics curricula for schooling is overviewed. The theoretical and empirical lines of inquiry in mathematics education research related to teaching and learning of mathematical applications and mathematical modelling regularly in classrooms are then selectively highlighted. Finally, future directions are recommended.
