    Data and Chance

    • In Person/On Campus

    You meet a new friend at CTY who teaches you a dice game. The rules are simple: if you roll a 4, you win and the game ends. If your friend rolls a 5, she wins and the game ends. You take turns rolling until one person wins. If you roll first, what is the probability that you will win the game? There are several ways to solve this problem, and the answer is not obvious.

    In this course, students develop a greater understanding of probability and statistics, two areas of mathematics that easily transfer from the classroom to the real world. Students conduct experiments and generate data which they display in graphs, charts, and tables in order to compare the effects of particular variables. For example, students might analyze data to examine how various design characteristics of a paper airplane, such as weight or length, affect the distance it will travel. In addition, students consider other data sources, including newspapers and journals, and identify examples of incorrectly gathered or misrepresented data that have been used to mislead consumers or influence voters.

    Students also explore probability, the study of chance, to learn how to use numerical data to predict future events. Students examine permutations and combinations; develop strategies for calculating the number of possible outcomes for various events; calculate probabilities of independent, dependent, and compound events; and learn to distinguish between theoretical and experimental probability.

    Experimenting with language: A Writer’s Perspective

    • In Person/On Campus

    Pulitzer Prize winning author Junot Diaz once said, “A writer is a writer because, even when there is no hope, even when nothing you do shows any signs of promise, you keep writing anyway.” Students in this course explore the ways in which writers use language to inspire, and make meaning in the world. With the help and support of the instructors, students practice reading with the sharp eye of a writer. As readers, they navigate various pieces of short fiction and poetry while questioning, investigating and employing techniques published writers use to make language come alive. As writers, they work toward developing their literary voices while experimenting with different writing methods and strategies. Students take risks and play with language as they create and share their work, collaborate with one another in writer’s workshops and develop finalized versions of their own, original, writing.

    Learning Objectives

    • Employ literary elements, narrative techniques, and figurative language in both formal and informal writing assignments.
    • Participate in multiple writing workshops that offer constructive criticism on your work in a safe, growth-oriented space.
    • Draft, revise, and undertake other important elements of the writing process in order to produce a minimum of two polished pieces of writing (short fiction and poetry).
