Participants will work through problems from a typical junior-level modeling course, including applications using calculus, differential equations, linear algebra, and statistics. This first session of the two part sequence will be run as "guided hands-on" so that participants less familiar with the application problem or with Sage can become comfortable with the software and with the use of the software in a modeling situation.
