, laboratory practices, modeling andsimulation practices, worksheets/spreadsheets) has been developed for the DE course. Its mainaxis is concerned with the modeling of biological, physical or chemical phenomena.Recent research has shown the need to change the way to teach DE, from the “traditional” way,which emphasizes analytical methods, to an integrative mode, which uses graphical andnumerical methods. This integrative mode should enable students to identify and recognize a DEin its different representations; and thus, improve the learning of DEs as mathematical objects.The student should not only learn how to use techniques to solve DEs but also learn theapplication of the DE as a tool to model several problems. This is also strengthened through

In fact, 77.4% of the students who participated in the visiting fellows programstated in a free response that their favorite aspect of the two weeks was either research for orexecution of the projects.Hands-on, problem-based activities are nearly unheard of in Kenyan education, as nearly alllearning is lecture style with some step-by-step laboratory work. As a result, these projects posedan educational paradigm shift for the students. In interviews, teachers also agreed that thispedagogical approach was more engaging and largely unknown to them in their
