CAS 2406X - Prediction and Forecasting: Applications to the Ohio University Prediction Tournament


Students will learn basic methodologies and practices for good forecasting that translate across many different disciplines. They will apply those skills to the problem of making predictions in an online prediction tournament, receiving weekly feedback from both their peers and the instructor. Predictions will be made in fields such as politics, economics, sport, meteorology, local events, etc., thus, the class does not assume any prior disciplinary knowledge.
