= Tips for teaching modeling for undergraduate applied math research = == Some tips for teaching modeling courses == # Match student groups based on free time. # Give up content in upper-level courses. # Create a course for your research students. # To manage lots of projects at once - instead of having multiple topics in your modeling course, try having one topic, but each group working on different aspects, have projects worked on by groups (purposefully teach collaboration!!). # Low-entry modeling courses allow us to work with students longer. # Infuse growth mindsets into your teaching ([https://sinews.siam.org/Details-Page/research-it-doesnt-take-a-genius link] from Chad Topaz).
