The context of meaning and understanding of mathematics which helps students to understand its sense and to see area of its application

The purpose of the presentation is to show that the key to the process of the developing acquisition of mathematics is the emphasis that students should put on the right choice of the appropriate realistic contexts. There are many ways of considering this problem for instance, the constructivist approach, the socio-cultural approach. Moreover, there is an idea of the epistemological triangle, which is considered a necessary tool for the analysis of the form and the degree of the development of mathematical meanings.
