MATLAB is the easiest and most productive computing environment for engineers and scientists. With math, graphics, and programming, it's designed for the way you think and the work you do.

Content on these pages is derived from participant presentations, discussions, and breakout groups at theTeaching Computation with MATLAB workshops.
Computation is the use of computers to perform calculations, model data, make predictions, and test hypotheses. Computational skills are necessary to employ quantitative methods in complex scientific contexts and with large data sets. With today's unprecedented data availability there are numerous new science and engineering opportunities if one has the necessary computational skills. Developing these skills requires students to be comfortable with languages and tools such as MATLAB that enable them to express and explore solutions to scientific problems.

In order to provide students with the computational skills they need to be successful, the teaching of computation must change to reflect the changing landscape of computation. Teaching Computation in the Sciences Using MATLAB provides resources to help educators incorporate computation into their classrooms and engage with a community of educators interested in improving the teaching of these important skills.

  1. Get started with MATLAB® by walking through an example. This video shows you the basics, and it gives you an idea of what working in MATLAB is like.- Downloa.
  2. Beginning Matlab Exercises R. Braun Department of Mathematical Sciences University of Delaware 1 Introduction This collection of exercises is intended to help you start learning Matlab. Matlab is a huge package with many capabilities, but it is easy to use on many levels.
  3. MATLAB provides tools to acquire, analyze, visualize data, and develop models and simulations of hypothetical and real-world phenomena. These capabilities enable teachers, students, and researchers in the geosciences to gain insight while simultaneously learning and applying mathematical computing skills and methods.
  4. Whether you're analyzing data, developing algorithms, or creating models, MATLAB ® is designed for the way you think and the work you do.

Approaches to Teaching Computation with MATLAB

MATLAB is useful tool for teaching computation because it allows for robust data analysis, data visualization and exploration, modeling, and working with real data sets. If the use of MATLAB is scaffolded in a course or curriculum, it is a tool that can help students develop computational skills and build self-efficacy. When combined with collaborative learning techniques and effective assessments, MATLAB can be an effective and powerful tool for teaching computation.
