SESSION: MATHEMATICS: Using Sage as a Tool in Undergraduate Mathematics Modeling Classes Part I

EVENT TYPE: Education

TIME: 10:30AM - 12:00PM

SESSION CHAIR: Daniel D. Warner

Presenter(s):Daniel D. Warner, Holly Peters Hirst, Neil J. Calkin

ROOM:WSCC 206

ABSTRACT:
This session will examine using Sage software tools to attack algebraic and empirical modeling problems from the physical, biological, and management sciences. 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.
