Functioning in the Real World:

Mathematical Modeling at the Precalculus Level

A Faculty Development Workshop


A group of Consortium faculty will be offering a faculty workshop on Mathematical Modeling at the Precalculus Level. Modeling approaches will include the analysis of real-world data in the sense of fitting functions to data, the use of the trig functions as models for periodic phenomena, modeling with difference equations, and matrix growth models.
