Abstract
Mathematics cannot be reduced to the use of algorithms. The main objective of teaching mathematics in school is their application in real world situations. Mathematical modeling was born as an answer of this concerned and implies the relation between mathematics and applications. Because of that, teachers need to be correctly training in the use of mathematical modeling in their daily lesson plans. The aim of this study is to propose a methodology for help teachers purchase mathematical modeling as a strategy to teach mathematics. Our methodology is based on the analysis of teachers' conceptions about learning and teaching mathematics and after that promote their evolution. The main characteristic is the collaborative work between teachers and the researcher in cycles of discussion and classes' implementation. The evidence showed that teachers can actually change their conceptions about what is needed for teaching mathematics and design lesson plans using mathematical modeling.

Towards Equity and Inclusion Excellence Using Diverse Interventions
Lesson and learning studies are forms of professional development for teachers, which was developed in Japan and spread worldwide. It includes a cyclic process and starts with a problem or an area for development identified in teachers’ actual practices. It aligns with the bottom-up perspective, and the topic teachers choose aims to improve learning for their students. Students’ learning and progress are measured and evaluated in collaboration. Measuring teachers’ learning, as done in this study (i.e., NDC AI), is less common, however.
