Abstract
(type = Description)
This was an interview following the second session that 6th grade students from the Plainfield, NJ district explored probability by playing dice games in an after-school enrichment program. In this video, Chris L and Jerel discuss their thought process through completing Dice game #1 and Dice game #2. This video footage captures the papers/work during the interview.
Dice game #1: A Game With One Die: Roll one die. If the die lands on a 1, 2, 3 or 4, player A gets one point (and player B gets 0). If the die lands on 5 or 6, player B gets one point ( and player A gets 0). Continue rolling the die. The first player to get ten points is the winner. (1) Is this a fair game? Why or why not? (2) Play the game with a partner. Do the results of playing the game support your answer? Explain. (3) If you think the game is unfair, how could you change it so that it could be fair? [Note: The game favors Player A with a 2/3probability of winning a point and a probability of approximately .935 of winning a game.]
Dice game #2: Roll two dice. If their sum is 2, 3, 4, 10, 11, or 12, player A gets one point (and player B gets 0). If their sum is 5, 6, 7, 8, or 9, player B gets one point (and player A gets 0). Continue rolling the dice. The first person to get ten points is the winner. (1) Is this a fair game? Why or why not? (2) Play the game with a partner. Do the results of playing the game support your answer? Explain. (3) If you think the game is unfair, how could you change it so that it could be fair? [Note: The game favors Player B with a â…” probability of winning a point and a probability of approximately .935 of winning a game.]
