Abstract
Many students have difficulties solving modelling tasks. However, it is not completely understood yet which skills are necessary for a successful solving process and how these are related to students’ characteristics. The aim of this paper is to provide a more holistic view of the influence of students’ characteristics while working on modelling tasks. It will be investigated how students’ characteristics (gender and social background) are related to solving modelling tasks and whether linguistic and intra-mathematical skills, as well as prior knowledge of real-world task context, play a mediating role.
