BetOnMath for Citizens - Scommetti sulla matematica (POK)

Offered by Politecnico di Milano,
BetOnMath for Citizens - Scommetti sulla matematica (POK)

Il percorso aiuta a svelare le insidie del gioco d’azzardo presentando in modo semplice ed intuitivo la Matematica che ne governa il funzionamento.

Il percorso è rivolto a tutti coloro che desiderano comprendere meglio il reale funzionamento dei giochi d’azzardo: è facile interpretare correttamente le probabilità di vincita? Quanti sono consapevoli di chi guadagna veramente con i giochi d’azzardo?

Questo breve percorso interattivo è strutturato in 3 unita’ che indagano 3 diversi aspetti: la probabilita’ di vincere, l’equita’ dei diversi giochi d’azzardo e il ruolo che rivestono superstizioni e false credenze nel comportamento dei giocatori. All’interno di ogni unità si ritrovano brevi video e quiz a risposta chiusa che forniscono al partecipante l’opportunità di mettersi in gioco e riflettere sui messaggi chiave veicolati.
Questa esperienza è parte del progetto di ricerca BetOnMath, finalizzato a creare un percorso formativo di probabilità che sia innovativo, certificato e disponibile a tutti gli insegnanti di scuola secondaria superiore che lo vogliano utilizzare all’interno della loro programmazione didattica.
I video e i materiali didattici rimarranno disponibili anche dopo la conclusione dell’edizione.
BetOnMath (Scommetti sulla Matematica) è un progetto di Matematica Civile. Nasce dall’osservazione della forte espansione del gioco d’azzardo in Italia e dalla constatazione che questo fenomeno ha radici nella preoccupante diffusione di un forte analfabetismo matematico. Sul sito potrai trovare tutte le informazioni.

Marketers must make the best decisions based on the information presented to them. Rarely will they have all the information necessary to predict what consumers will do with complete certainty. By incorporating uncertainty into the decisions that they make, they can anticipate a wide range of possible outcomes and recognize the extent of uncertainty on the decisions that they make. In Incorporating Uncertainty into Marketing Decisions, learners will become familiar with different methods to recognize sources of uncertainty that may affect the marketing decisions they ultimately make.

Practical Time Series Analysis (Coursera)

Many of us are "accidental" data analysts. We trained in the sciences, business, or engineering and then found ourselves confronted with data for which we have no formal analytic training. This course is designed for people with some technical competencies who would like more than a "cookbook" approach, but who still need to concentrate on the routine sorts of presentation and analysis that deepen the understanding of our professional topics.

Initiation à la théorie des distributions (Coursera)

Une fonction discontinue peut-elle être solution d'une équation différentielle? Comment définir rigoureusement la masse de Dirac (une "fonction" d'intégrale un, nulle partout sauf en un point) et ses dérivées? Peut-on définir une notion de "dérivée d'ordre fractionnaire"? Cette initiation aux distributions répond à ces questions - et à bien d'autres.
