Zen and the Art of Statistics followed by a Bonenkai or Year End Party

Event Speaker(s): 
Greg Sholdt
Saturday, December 13, 2008 - 4:00pm to 6:00pm

What is the true meaning of the mean? During this unique and fun workshop designed for those who don't like numbers, the presenter will guide participants in an exploration of statistical concepts and reasoning. The primary goal is to deepen participants' understanding of statistics and demonstrate techniques for self-study. During the workshop, participants will solve quantitative riddles that are loosely modeled after Zen koans and carefully designed to lead participants to higher levels of quantitative clarity.
The presentation will be followed by a bonenkai, all are welcome to join us at the amazing Pasha Turkish restaurant < http://r.gnavi.co.jp/c675400/ >. The set menu with nomihodai is 5000 yen for men and 4300 for women. Space is limited to 24, so please contact kobejalt@gmail.com soon to reserve yourself a place!
