Lesson Topic
Probabilities - some practical examples
Lesson Outline
Jared and I systematically recorded the flipping of a coin three times in order to see if certain sequences have more probability of occurring before another sequence. We saw that our results pretty much coincided with the calculated probabilities. I also discussed various real-world scenarios in which the term 'probability' is not taken to mean the layman's interpretation (i.e. 'odds') but instead represents a physical situation, such as one often finds in quantum mechanics. We shall be exploring more of these examples in lessons to come.

Lesson Comments
Despite having just sat the test in the previous class, Jared was very cooperative and engaged in Statistics. As always, he showed a great deal of interest when we discussed physics, especially our tentative first dip into quantum mechanics.
