Description The paper deals with the system Maple for teaching mathematical modelling in biology. Students learn mathematical modelling, i.e. using mathematics and its applications in different scientific disciplines of biology with using Maple in exercises, testing and making smart documents for presentation of solved mathematical models. Maple serves them as an important interactive support for understanding and presenting solved biologicalproblems. Mathematical models lie in a background of any computational model. Therefore, at the end of this paper some basic ideas on process of mathematical modelling are demonstrated in the case study of several computational models in biology.
