A pretty cool lesson was experienced late last week in Mr. Davis's Statistics class in which our SRO, Trooper Knight, teamed up with Mr. Davis to demonstrate how statistics are used by law enforcement every day. Trooper Knight shared with the class the project that was undertaken a few years ago in the Route 220 corridor between Williamsport and Jersey Shore. Students used the data presented to them to make predictions for reducing fatalities as was the similar methods used by PSP. Students were able to apply dependent and independent variables, among other statistics, and interact with both Trooper Knight and Mr. Davis in a team teaching atmosphere. Well done Mr. Davis and Trooper Knight!
