Emphasis on Mathematical Modeling: The Problems of Contour Values in Calculating the Deflection of a Beam

Mathematical Modeling has played a fundamental role in the process of teaching and learning mathematics at the various levels of education. The great challenge of today\u27s education is to create means to minimize the distance between the relations of mathematical theory and practical models of everyday life. This work aimed to treat the study of Ordinary Differential Equations through a very usual model of civil construction. Often, students of Mathematics Degree develop skills to understand the abstractions of the vast theory associated with the areas of mathematics, but without being able to exemplify and / or correlate with everyday models
