    3-045-RampBounce-ModelingScenario
    Students build two projectile motion models (1) a one-dimensional model for a vertically falling ball from a fixed distance until it hits an inclined ramp and (2) a two-dimensional projectile motion model of the ball bouncing off the ramp.

    6-008-PursuitModels-Modeling Scenario
    Students are prompted to build systems of nonlinear differential equations to model pursuit-evader activities in which a pursuer attempts to follow, perhaps track down and come close to, an evader without knowledge of the evader's intentions, just...
