Reforms on Teaching of Mathematical Modeling and Organization of Contest

Abstract

Abstract. With rapid delvelopment and popularization of high-tech and computer, the importance of mathematics becomse increasingly prominent. Human has entered the society of information and the era of network, which makes the mode of mathematical education changing. Mathmatical modeling is the best joint of improving mathematical knowledge and application abilities. The teaching of mathematical modeling is an important way to carry out qualitative education while China Undergraduate Mathematical Contest in Modeling is an incentive to attract students to attach importance to mathematical modeling. Mathematical modeling teaching and organizaing students to participite in the contest is not only an important way to inspire innovative consciousness, increase innovative ability, cultivate high level talents but also an effective measure to inspire students' learning desire, foster spirit of active exploration and striving to forge ahead. There exists some experiences and problems in the author's college in mathematical teaching and organization of the contest. They are discussed to find out an efficient scheme of cultivation that could be utilized to cultivate qualified talents in future.
