Harder with curriculum standards (that don't have MM)
Active learning styles more conducive
More likely to occur in HS rather than in Higher Ed
Used in Diff Eq course. SIMEODE. Some great, some not.
Building in routines to do modeling in class regularly.
What is mathematical modeling?

Credentialing courses? 
The internet? 
Workshops at conferences? Desmos? (Hi Dan!)
Self-created resources (Joceline researches this all the time!!!)
It's a lens to see the world with (everywhere you go there are opportunities to model things! Practice finding them!)\

Not enough support which leads to various difficulties:

There is a tension btw meaningful math modeling vs. modeling for modeling's sake.

Not integrated, changing content artificially. Students don't connect to it.
