  • 1040 - 1100: Break
  • 1100 - 1120: Group presents solution to challenge (SAS)
  • 1120 - 1140: Class discussion (SAS)
  • 1140 - 1240: Lab session (SAS)

#Incentives

Recall:

  • Class Test: 40%;
  • Individual Coursework: 30%; I'm giving you 25% of this.
    • Participate in discussion
  • Group Coursework: 30%; I'm giving you 25% of this.
    • Present solutions to challenge.

#Example R Challenge

The data set Data_for_Analysis.csv contains data of simulated game play for the game "shut the box" (for info see this blog post). Rows of the file correspond to instances of play. Columns correspond to variables corresponding to each of the 4 strategies:

  • The score for each strategy
  • The number of turns for each strategy

Which strategy seems to be the best?

#Group work "issues"

  • A lot of literature on the subject:

Lejk, M., Wyvill, M., & Farrow, S. (1996). A Survey of Methods of Deriving Individual Grades from Group Assessments. Assessment & Evaluation in Higher Education, 21(3).

  • We will use a game theoretical approach.

#Summary

  • Flipped classroom approach;
  • IBL approach;
  • Needs your buy in to work.
