Written for high school students who have some experience with
computation and an interest in math modeling, this handbook is
designed to take you from basic graphic calculator or spreadsheet
experience to the next level, which includes programming basics,
working with large data sets, and visualization techniques. The
handbook is also written for teachers who will assist students as
they incorporate software into the math modeling process. This
companion volume to Math Modeling: Getting Started and Getting
Solutions (SIAM, 2014) takes you beyond the basic process of
mathematical modeling to technical computing using software
platforms and coding. Math modeling is the process that uses
mathematics to represent, analyze, make predictions, or otherwise
provide insight into real-world phenomena. The authors Bliss,
Galluzzo, Kavanagh, and Levy are experienced professional
practitioners of modeling. They provide professional development
for teachers, have developed and judge modeling contests, and teach
modeling in their own classrooms. Topics include computations,
statistics, visualization, programming, and simulation. Primary
examples recur throughout the handbook to show multiple ways
technology can help tackle the same problem. A separate section,
Choosing Your Tech Tool, and an appendix that shares a collection
of “best practices” when writing code offer more good advice
for readers. References are included.
