Presentation for the Symposium on BEER October 2019Mathematical Modeling in Precalculus, Calculus I, andModeling CoursesMegan Buzby1,1Department of Mathematics, University of Alaska Southeast, Juneau, AK 99801mbuzby1@alaska.eduTo better prepare our students for the interdisciplinary nature of real-world problems with no answer keyin the back of the book, the 2019 GAIMME report recommends incorporating mathematical modeling inall grades K-12 and undergraduate levels. I will present the modeling framework and outline for lessons Iplan to use in my current intermediate algebra, precalculus and calculus courses. The audience will alsoparticipate in a lesson on the SIR model/rumor spreading that I plan to use in my mathematical modelingcourse in the spring - please bring your laptops!
