Modelling and Mobile Learning with Math Trails

The chapter provides an orientation on the concept of mobile learning and how it can be pursued with mobile math trails. Math trails contain tasks that promote essential elements of mathematical modelling, such as mathematising. Research shows that, nowadays, math trails are more and more supported by digital media, and that this affects students’ motivation and achievements. The chapter collects existing findings on mobile learning with math trails and expands the findings with the results of a study on digital support of the modelling processes of 11th graders when doing math trails.
