概率论教学笔记四则

本文列举了笔者在概率论教学中处理的四个例子:生日问题、写数问题、猜拳问题、骰子问题这些例子都是日常生活中的司空见惯看似浅显的典型随机现象,通过设计随机试验让学生积极参与,或者通过理论计算分析,让学生体验抽象复杂的理论在日常生活中的应用,感受概率论的魅力,起到了活跃课堂气氛、提高学习兴趣、加强师生互动、加深学生对深奥理论和方法理解的良好效果。

Four Remarks on Probability Theory Teaching

This paper lists four cases, Birthday Problem, Writing Consecutive Numbers, Finger-guessing Game, and Rolling Dice. These cases are typical, common, and seemingly plain stochastic phenomena in daily life, and are expecially dealt with by the author when teaching the course Probability Theory. By designing random trials which students can actively participate in, or by theoretical calculation and analysis, students are engaged in experiencing applications of abstract or complex theories in daily life and feeling the charm of Probability Theory. The way of processing the above cases had a good effect on enlivening classroom atmospher, enhancing students'interest in learning, strengthening teacher-student interaction and deepening students ' understanding of the esoteric theories and methods of probability.
