Lessons in Mathematics Section 5: Oscillatory Behavior
Author(s): Diana M. Fisher Subject: Math
  This book provides a set of tools that enables educators to teach mathematics using the framework of System Dynamics. Section 5 covers sinusoidal functions, including simple harmonic motion. Distance versus time lessons using a motion detector are also included, as are lessons on predator-prey systems.

Complex Systems Connection: Cause within System. The lessons in this section can be used as building blocks for the Oscillations curriculum that illustrates "the cause of the problem is within the system."

Lessons in Mathematics Section 7: Differential Equations
Author(s): Diana M. Fisher Subject: Math
  This book provides a set of tools that enables educators to teach mathematics using the framework of System Dynamics. Section 7 builds on the skills of Sections 5 and 6 using classic problems studied with differential equations. Exponential, convergent and logistic models are presented using examples from contagious disease, the path of lead through the body and predator-prey interactions. This section also compares the numerical derivation of Euler's Method to a corresponding version in STELLA.

Complex Systems Connection: Cause within System. The lessons in this section can be used as building blocks for the Oscillations curriculum that illustrates "the cause of the problem is within the system." Available from iseesystems.

Lessons in Mathematics: A Dynamic Approach
Author(s): Diana M. Fisher Subject: Math
  The abstractness of a traditional approach to mathematics causes many students to falter. This book focuses on making the abstractness more concrete with interesting and fun lessons. It uses STELLA software's icon-based, non-abstract language to structure problems in ways that students can easily visualize. Students use the software's simulation capabilities to explore solutions to the problems. Some sections can be used as building blocks to understand the behavior of complex systems, while others illustrate one or more characteristics of complex systems. Available from iseesystems.
