    The differential equations used to define a unit circle, namely x’(t) = - y(t), y’(t) = x(t), x(0) = 1, y(0) = 0 are generalized to produce interesting functions which satisfy trig like identities.

    1-022-SpreadOfTechnologies-ModelingScenario
    We examine plots on the spread of technologies and ask students to estimate and extract data from the plots and then model several of these spread of technologies phenomena with a logistic differential equation model.
