    17 Jan 2022 | | Contributor(s):: Jennie D'Ambroise

    We describe a modeling activity for Calculus I students in which modeling with difference and differential equations is appropriate. This model enlightens students as to how derivatives are used in applications as well as a brief introductory encounter with parameter estimation for a linear,...

    30 May 2015 | | Contributor(s):: Brian Winkel

    We present a situation in which a chemistry graduate student is assigned the  task of collecting data on a chemical reaction and does a poor job of collecting the data. Indeed, he only collects the data at the start and end of a number of three minute intervals and does not keep track of...

    We present a situation in which a chemistry graduate student is assigned the  task of collecting data on a chemical reaction and does a poor job of collecting the data. Indeed, she only collects the data at the start and end of a number of ten minute intervals and does not keep track of when...
