Consortium, published twice
a year and available electronically,
blends contemporary teaching activities with commentaries,
articles and contests to bring the excitement of mathematical
modeling to high school classrooms. Each issue contains
the Pull-Out
section, a reproducible classroom activity centered on a real-world
modeling problem. Recent Pull-Out
lessons have modeled a wide range of topics including the
genetics of sickle cell anemia and the accuracy of the Patriot
Missile System.
Starting with issue 104 COMAP has decided to make the Consortium available as a free download. So bookmark this page and visit regularly to download the latest issue of Consortium.
