laura123456 0 Posted March 19, 2020 Report Share Posted March 19, 2020 Hello I am really struggling with simply finding a good topic for my math IA that is at HL level. I was thinking of modeling the spread of gossip as a different approach to modeling the spread of disease but still using the same mathematics. However, I don't know if its going to work and am open to any ideas. Thanks in advance! Reply Link to post Share on other sites
MountEETOKIA 8 Posted April 7, 2020 Report Share Posted April 7, 2020 (edited) Hi there! Honestly modelling the spread of gossip will probably be a lot different from modelling the spread of diseases... Doesn't sound like a good idea. Simply change the type of disease your modelling. Have you heard of SIR model? Sounds like a pretty good topic, check it out. In fact, I happen to have a high-scoring student written Math IA which modelled the spread of diseases using an SIR model. You can check it out here. Cheers! Let me know if I helped. Edited April 7, 2020 by MountEETOKIA Reply Link to post Share on other sites
