    1-101-ClassMMDeathImmigration-ModelingScenario
    We offer students an opportunity to generate unique data for their team on a death and immigration model using m&m's and then pass on the data to another student team for analysis with a model they built. The key is to recover the parameters.

    4-050-ResonanceBeats-ModelingScenario
    We study what can happen when a pure oscillator (no damper) is driven by a forced vibration function which has the same or close to the same natural frequency as the system it is driving.

    2015-Carl_Lutzer-Using Expected Value to Introduce the Laplace Transform
    We propose an introduction to the Laplace transform in which Riemann sums are used to approximate the expected net change in a function, assuming that it quantifies a process that can terminate at random.

    1-062-BacteriaGrowth-ModelingScenario
    We offer students a simulation experience or data from a simulation and ask them to model the simulation using several approaches: exponential growth fit, difference equation, differential equation, and parameter estimation using EXCEL spreadsheet.

    2006-Wilensky-Reisman-Thinking Like a Wolf a Sheep or a Firefly
    We describe a computation-based approach that enables students to investigate the connections between different biological levels using agent-based, embodied modeling tools.
