    1-001B-DeathImmigrationMystery-ModelingScenario
    We describe a classroom activity in which students use M\&M candies to simulate death and immigration. Each student conducts an experiment with an immigration rate unique to that student - of that student's choice

    1-125-DiceyPopulation-ModelingScenario
    We offer students an opportunity to generate data for their team on a death and immigration model using 12 and 20 sided dice and then pass on the data to another student team for analysis with a model they built. The key is to recover the...

    1-001s-StochasticMDeathImmigration-ModelingScenario
    We develop a mathematical model of a death and immigration process using m&ms as a stochastic process with the help of probability generating functions (pgf). We start with 50 m&ms in a bag.

    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.

    1-004-MicroorganismImmigration-ModelingScenario
    We present a modeling opportunity for population death with non-constant immigration and suggest the use of both discrete and continuous models with a comparison of results.

    1-001-MM-DeathAndImmigration-ModelingScenario
    We conduct a simulation of death and immigration, using a small set of "individuals", m&m candies or any two sided object (coin, chips), in which upon tossing a set of individuals we cause some to die and others then to immigrate. Modeling ensues!
