Hi Distance Learning Community members, if you are looking for content in Descriptive Statistics and Probability Distributions for teaching in a course or just brushing up on the concepts yourself, check out these Live Scripts developed by Dr. Ward Nickle from Humboldt State University. If you are interested, this material is also available in Japanese . Enjoy and looking forward to hearing your thoughts!!

If you teach ordinary differential equations (ODEs) or use ODEs in your class, a common challenge you may have encountered is helping your students overcome the ‘mathematical intimidation’ of the concepts. You can use the Phase Plane and Slope Field apps, developed and shared by the MathWorks Online Teaching team, to let your students develop a visual intuition of ODEs by qualitative analysis.

These apps capture the functionality of the wildly popular PPlane and DField apps created by John C. Polking in MATLAB between 1995 and 2003. While similar in function to the original apps, the Slope Field and Phase Plane apps have been written entirely from scratch in MATLAB App Designer using modern MATLAB coding practices. This makes the new apps easier to maintain, edit, and use.

Get the apps on GitHub, and visit the MATLAB and Simulink Courseware page for more curriculum resources tailored to multiple disciplines.
