Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: Mathematical modeling is typically thought of as an art form learned by imitation and through apprenticeship to a "master". Most modelers that have contributed to the political science literature have traveled this route and have made ingenious and significant contributions. Unfortunately this approach tends to create enclaves of modeling types with modelers from one group unable to communicate with those in other groups and instilling a tendency to squeeze any question into their specialized format, not realizing that the assumptions behind a given modeling form may be inappropriate for the problem being studied. These difficulties have led us to develop a workshop/course, the Merriam Modeling Workshop (MMW), designed to help students explore the thought processes of mathematical modeling in generic terms.
