Two Approaches to Problem Solving: An Outline
 

Modeling with Data: Empirical Modeling

Demonstrate the following steps in fitting a model to data relative to a phenomenon.


Modeling from Theory: Mathematical Modeling

Demonstrate the following steps in solving a real world problem.

Always demonstrate appropriate and effective use of technology in executing the steps in either of the two processes.

Here are some actions to avoid in the model development phases of exercises.  However, these actions may be employed in the evaluation or critique of your models if you give reference credit to the device, software, or source:
