    2008-Taro-Blog on Modern Political Economy-Differential Equations in Our Life
    Differential equations - easy to hear but often impossible to solve- are around there in our life. If you are an econ learner, you have much time to express the economy by using differential equations.

    3-017-StackedCoffeeFiltersFalling-ModelingScenario
    Data on free falling 2, 4, 6, and 8 stacked coffee filters is offered. Students form a model using a resistance term proportional to velocity, velocity squared, or velocity to some general power. Parameters need to be estimated and models compared.

    3-016-FallingCoffeeFilters-ModelingScenario
    We are given data on the time and position of a stack of coffee filters as it falls to the ground. We attempt to model the falling mass and we confront the different resistance terms and models.

    2018-Chris McCarthy-Newtons Law of Cooling
    You have hot water (initial temperature ) in a container, say a cup or glass. The temperature in the room is cooler, say a constant degrees Celsius. Come up with a differential equation that models the water's temperature.

    1-094-SteepingTea-ModelingScenario
    We provide photographs of steeping process for a tea steeped in hot water. Students build a differential equation model for the steeping process and do parameter estimation using the color of our tea as a way to measure relative concentration.

    2017-Andrew_Lewis-Introduction_to_Differential_Equations_for_Smart_Kids
    The author addresses the question, "If I do not teach all of the usual techniques and tricks for solving differential equations, what do I replace it with?" in a number of wonderful ways.
