    2007-Helfgott-Seier-Some Mathematical and Statistical Aspects of Enzyme Kinetics
    We will analyze some basic ideas behind enzyme kinetics, which allow us to deal with separable and linear differential equations as well as realize the need to use power series.

    6-022-CannibalismPredatorPrey-ModelingScenario
    The Lotka-Volterra model tells us that the prey and predator exhibit a shifted cyclic behavior over time. In this module, we look at modifying this prey-predator model to consider the case when there is cannibalism in the predator species.

    1-007-AntTunnelBuilding-ModelingScenario
    We pose the prospect of modeling just how long an ant takes to build a tunnel. With a bit of guidance students produce a model for the time it takes to build a tunnel of length x into the side of a damp sandy hill.
