One of the main topics of mathematics education nowadays is teaching applications of mathematics in various fields, which lead in the recent decades to the development of the STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics), connecting these disciplines using transdisciplinary or interdisciplinary approaches. Applications of mathematics has become important not only from academic point of view, as helping students to understand mathematics, to apply mathematical knowledge in various contexts, and to show the utility of mathematics, but also because mathematics is an integral part of our daily lives. Teachers have an important role in this approach, so it is important to study their attitude towards teaching applications of mathematics and their experience.  \nThe research was conducted in 2021 in Israel. The participants are 221 mathematics teachers from post primary schools. The research instrument was a questionnaire developed for this study based on the scientific literature and aimed to find out teachers’ opinion about teaching applications of mathematics and their practice in integrating applications in their teaching. The questionnaire contains both closed and open questions. The responses were quantitatively and qualitatively analyzed.  \nThe results of the study show that 42.5% of teachers in Israel are teaching applications of mathematics. Analyzing the answers given by those teachers, who teach applications of mathematics, 47% are teaching applications in physics, 47.5% integrate them in their lessons few times a semester, and 52.1% of them teaching applications through presenting it to the students. In the participants’ opinion, the most important benefits of teaching applications of mathematics arearising students' interest for mathematics (44.3%) and motivating students for learning mathematics (34.8%) . The most important obstacles of teaching applications of mathematics are time-constrains (30.8%) and lack of teachers’ skills to teaching mathematical applications in other disciplines (24.6%) .  \nKey Words: a pplicationof mathematics, STEM, advantages of teaching applications, obstacles in teaching applications.  \nIntroduction  \nThe importance of mathematics stems from its necessity for human functioning in key areas of activity in the modern world. It is also a basis for logical-quantitative thinking, for science and technology studies and their development. Therefore, it is essential to teach applications of mathematics to correlate mathematics to real life, to consider mathematics as a domain that can help students in their personal development, and as a useful tool which can help them create special things in real life.  \nThe main problem of mathematics education is that high school students frequently fail to connect the math they learned in the classroom with the life and modern world they live in (Nkhase, 2002) . Students graduate from high school and yet are unaware that mathematical knowledge, mathematical skills, and mathematical applications are necessary for success in life, in their future studies, and in designating their careers. This can be explained by the teaching strategies used which neither expose to the student the relevance of mathematics, nor develop his thinking and understanding of the subject.  \nBy using these strategies, the student learns in an algorithmic and procedural way of solving exercises from the textbooks. Many students only study math because they must study and pass exams.  \nShowing applications of mathematics in other disciplines is very essential to instill in students the love of mathematics, to motivate them for learning it, to show them its importance in their daily lives without anxiety and reluctance. By the time, they will study it with enjoyment and desire which would lead to change their conceptions about an","cbCaiiFWh4kzFpqa","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiiFWh4kzFpqa","pdf",220361,"English","# Abstract\n# Introduction\n# Theoretical Background\n# Research Method and Participants\n# Results and Discussion","[{\"question\":\"What does the study examine regarding mathematics education?\",\"answer\":\"The study examines teachers’ opinions and practice in integrating mathematical applications from other disciplines into mathematics teaching.\"},{\"question\":\"How was the research conducted and who participated?\",\"answer\":\"In 2021 in Israel, 221 post-primary mathematics teachers participated.
