For Friday, 11/17

from:Bowen, Paul

to:Statistics

We didn't cover chapter 7 completely (not even close), so no exercises are due on Friday, 11/17. Instead, students should review chapter 7.

I aplogize for leaving my book and lecture notes at home.

to:Statistics

Students should do exercises 2.1 -- 2.5 in section 2.7 of the book (see below), to be handed in in class on 9/8/17. I have extended this deadline from 9/6 since it took me so long to get Thinkwave going.

The book is Dekking, F. M, et al., "A modern Introduction to Probability and Statistics". This book is on order, but in the meantime, students can get a pdf of it here:

Before School Help

from:Sayers, Ken

to:Computer Science Principles

We'll be installing some software and doing some programming.  These two things can sometimes go awry in unexpected ways.  Some of the best programmers I have worked with run into strange issues when programming or setting up new tools.

I will be at the school around 8am each Tuesday and Thursday to be available for anyone having issues with anything.  Just stop in and we'll work on it together.

Also, if you want need some help outside class at another time, don't hesitate to send an email to me at kensayers@shillingschool.org.  I can respond via email or we can skype.

Using Confluence

from:Sayers, Ken

to:Computer Science Principles

To CSPers

Some of you guys have tried to use confluence and weren't sure how to make it work.  I put some instructions on the class project page

https://schilling-csp.atlassian.net/wiki/spaces/TEAM/pages/2818052/Class+Project

Basically, just go to the page, hit the pencil in the top right to edit.

To add a row to one of the tables, click in the table and use the tool at the top that looks like a row being added (one for above and one for below the current row).

Put your information in and then push publish at the bottom.

Aikido of Cincinnati

from:Meehan-Dorr, Megan

to:Aikido 5-8

During the course of this school year I am making it mandatory for all Aikido students to attend a class at Aikido of Cincinnati free of charge.  I have held off making the announcement of this assignment because I wanted to make sure the students had enough time with me to feel comfortable with the content and etiquette of the dojo to get the most out of the experience.  Over the winter break may be a good opportunity to get this assignment completed if it works with your families schedule.  Some students may be interested in the Monday evening advanced youth class and some of the upper level students would be more comfortable in the adult classes.  I have spoken with the students to let them know which group I feel would best suit them.  A complete list of the class schedule and the location of the school can be found at Aikidocincy.com.  The students need to attend the class and then write a short paper describing the experience and some of the techniques they covered.  This assignment does not need to be done until the end of the school year but it is my hope that they will get this done early and perhaps begin to attend classes regularly at that school.  If it is an impossibility to attend a class there I can make up another assignment but nothing could compare to the experience of using the content of our class in action at the dojo. If you have any questions please contact me through email.
