    1-001d-HotelPopulationDecay-ModelingScenario
    You will be modeling the following situation: 100 people are in a hotel. Each day, each person has a random chance of 50% of leaving the hotel. No new people enter the hotel. Before you run the simulation in MATLAB, answer some questions.

    1-081-TumorGrowth-ModelingScenario
    Students will transform, solve, and interpret a tumor growth scenario using non-linear differential equation models. Two population growth models (Gompertz and logistic) are applied to model tumor growth.

    2008-Lawson-Marion-An Introduction to Mathematical Modelling
    This is a broad based set of notes with sections: Building Models, Studying Models, and Using Models. No depth on any model, no solution strategies, but good references to models, and general approaches that apply in most situations are offered.
