Web-based learning tool:
Recently, many efforts have been devoted to the
implementation of web based learning tools, that have found widespread
diffusion in high schools, graduate and undergraduate universities
classes. They enable the fruition of educational materials through
a web used user interface and they often implement the same cognitive
model that is beyond a traditional course.
The aim of this work is to present SIRMM (Searchable Information Repository
of Mathematical Models), an interactive environment for mathematical teaching
and learning within scientific disciplines. It provides a mathematical common
and unifying framework to teach scientific and technical disciplines such as
physics, engineering, biology and finance, in which mathematical modeling and
data analysis play a major role. It enables the development of training paths
that are both interactive and multidisciplinary, in which mathematics is used
to easier the understanding and analysis of scientific problems, building and
solving ad hoc models.
