1999
"@" -- AT, or Authentic Tasks is a collection of real-world applications of mathematics in a great variety of situations.

There is a great need for knowledge in mathematics, science and technology to solve the every-day and future problems of our common world. Unfortunately, there is often a lack of relevance or meaningful context when we are supposed to learn these desired skills. Our basic idea was to show the opposite!
