Bringing Matlab into Introductory Differential Equations


Abstract:
I will discuss an experimental modification to the curriculum for the Introduction to Differential Equations course (Math 340).  The goal was to include a modest number of relevant lessons on Matlab, explaining how it could be used for computing solutions of differential equations.   The approach, course notes, and student reactions will be discussed.
