    6-006-ZombieGameHvZ-ModelingScenario
    Invented in 2005, Humans vs. Zombies, or HvZ, is a game of tag, predominantly played at US college campuses. In this activity, students use systems of non-linear differential equations to model the HvZ game.

    1-141-MMGameRevisited-ModelingScenario
    It is assumed that the probability of an M&M chocolate, when tossed, falling on the M side is 0.5 The goal is to find a probability distribution of the probability q which is Pr(randomly chosen M&M falling M up when tossed).

    1-008-HangTime-ModelingScenario
    We present a modeling opportunity for students in which they model the vertical position of a basketball player taking a jump shot. The goal of the scenario is to get students to consider the meaning of the notion ``hang-tune.''

    2010-Kar-Chakraborty-Bioeconomic_modelling_of_a_prey_predator_system_using_differential_algebraic_equations
    We propose a biological economic model based on prey-predator dynamics where the prey species are continuously harvested and predation is considered with type II functional response.

    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...
