| Introduction to the project (Provided by the school): S.K.H. Lui Ming Choi Secondary School Theme: The Two Tortoises Team members: Kwok Fai Yip Ching Fung Tsang Sai Ho Have you ever noticed that people have a lot of strange beliefs. You can actually prove that they are fallacious if you know more about “probability”. Is it easy to win a stall game at a carnival? Is it really difficult to win the first prize in a raffle? How many of you have a classmate who was born on the same date in the same month like you? Do you consider yourself lucky when you get a good draw from a cup of fortune sticks? Look over there. The two tortoises are discussing “probability”. Do you want to share your ideas with them? Listen to their conversation. |
