1-015-DimensionlessVariables-TechniqueNarrative
This material introduces the idea of ``rescaling'' for ordinary differential equations (ODE's) by the use of dimensionless variables. In practice this is an extremely common and useful prelude to the analysis and solution of ODE's.

2012-Hassan_Moore-Using projects to stimulate learning in mathematics and engineering mathematics courses
Given that time is a premium in the academy and project creation is a time consumer, three original projects, which may be injected into any Calculus III, Differential Equations, or Engineering Mathematics course, have been created.

2009-Brian_Winkel-Modelling_Growth_Of_an_OilSlick
An oil-slick spreads at sea. From time to time, but irregularly, a helicopter is dispatched. On each trip, it arrives over the slick, the pilot takes a picture, waits 10 minutes, takes another, and heads home. Model this.
