An innovative course that offers students an exciting new perspective on mathematics, Mathematical Models with Applications explores the same types of problems that math professionals encounter daily. The modeling process—forming a theory, testing it, and revisiting it based on the results of the test—is critical for learning how to think mathematically. Demonstrating this ability can open up a wide range of educational and professional opportunities for students. Mathematical Models with Applications has been designed for students who have completed Algebra I or Geometry and see this as the final course in their high school mathematics sequence, or who would like additional math preparation before Algebra II. Mathematical Models with Applications ListServAs a service to instructors using Mathematical Models with Applications, a listserv has been designed as a forum to share ideas, ask questions and learn new ways to enhance the learning experience for their students.
