The objective of this study is to help students learn the topic about mathematical modeling in real-life situations as well to create consciousness and learn to make a reflection regarding their way of acting and taking decisions as young people, as well as the impact they could have not only on themselves, but with others. This research used a mixed methodology where 27 students in the class of Principle of Math Modeling participated in the research. A survey was applied in the group, where one of the purposes was to promote meaningful learning in students through active learning with respect to mathematical modeling through a current and real situation in young students, generating an impact in their way of acting and learning for life. The results of this study showed not only an improvement in the understanding of the concepts of mathematical models but also in the personal reflection regarding the risks that young people can have when driving under the influence of alcohol.
