In this chapter we reflect on issues in the teaching and learning of mathematical modelling that connect selected interests and themes from our work with cognate issues and themes in the published work of Gabriele Kaiser. These engage respective topics of authenticity of the modelling enterprise, issues associated with modelling in educational contexts, implications concerning metacognition for both students and teachers, alternative conceptions of the purpose of modelling that are found in the field of educational practice, associated criticisms that are levelled at mathematical modelling in educational settings, and beliefs of teaching practitioners about the nature and value of mathematical modelling as a curriculum component. In reflecting across the domains encompassed by these topic areas, our purpose is to highlight factors that remain telling challenges to the continued development of our field, and emphasise issues that make this field a special one because of the rich outcomes that can be achieved.
