One model for a <a href=\"https:\/\/study.com\/learn\/lesson\/what-is-quantitative-reasoning.html#:~:text=Quantitative%20Reasoning%20is%20the%20ability,problems%20into%20solvable%20mathematical%20problems.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">quantitative reasoning<\/a> course is to provide students with a single cohesive topic. Ideally, such a topic can pique the curiosity of students with wide ranging academic interests and limited mathematical background. This text is intended for use in such a course. This text may also be appropriate for a high school enrichment course.<\/p>\n<p>Many colleges and universities are offering courses in quantitative reasoning for all students. One model for a quantitative reasoning course is to provide students with a single cohesive topic. Ideally, such a topic can pique the curiosity of students with wide-ranging academic interests and limited mathematical background. This text is intended for use in such a course. Game theory is an excellent topic for a non-majors quantitative course as it develops mathematical models to understand human behavior in social, political, and economic settings. The variety of applications can appeal to a broad range of students. Additionally, students can learn mathematics through playing games, something many choose to do in their spare time!<\/p>\n<p>This text particularly explores the ideas of game theory through the rich context of popular culture. At the end of each chapter is a section on applications of the concepts to popular culture. It suggests films, television shows, and novels with themes from game theory. The questions in each of these sections are intended to serve as essay prompts for writing assignments.<\/p>\n<h3>Course Goals<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Introduce students to the mathematics of game theory.<\/li>\n<li>Teach students how to use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.immchallenge.org.au\/supporting-resources\/what-is-mathematical-modelling\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">mathematical models<\/a> to solve problems in social and economic situations.<\/li>\n<li>Build students&#8217; quantitative intuition. Introduce students to the power of mathematics to frame human behavior.<\/li>\n<li>Provide students an opportunity to use algebraic techniques, such as linear models and systems of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bbc.co.uk\/bitesize\/topics\/z83rkqt\/articles\/zv2ck2p\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"> equations<\/a>, in game-theoretic applications.<\/li>\n<li>Provide students an opportunity to use basic ideas of probability, such as expected value, in game-theoretic applications.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Course Format<\/h3>\n<p>The material is presented in a discovery format, requiring students to make conjectures frequently. Each section is structured as a class activity. Any introduction material can be read by the students, and the numbered problems or questions are to be out in class and as homework, depending on how far a particular student progresses through the section. Most sections require students to attempt to solve the problem before they have been provided much framework. The sections then build the necessary tools to solve the problem or understand the key ideas. Being able to compare their original solutions and ideas to the more sophisticated mathematical ones helps build their mathematical intuition and helps them to understand the power of using mathematics in situations where their intuition falls short.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><iframe frameborder=\"0\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowFullscreen=\"true\" style=\"width: 100%; height: 700px; border: none;\" src=\"https:\/\/online.visual-paradigm.com\/share\/book\/introduction-to-game-theory-a-discovery-approach-nordstrom--117hyxfu9q?enforceShowPromotionBar=true&#038;p=1\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":15565,"template":"","meta":{"_yoast_wpseo_title":"","_yoast_wpseo_metadesc":"Many colleges offer courses in quantitative reasoning for all students.
