Department: Freshman Tutorial
Description: In this class, we'll explore enigmatology, a term coined by Will Shortz for the study of puzzles. Puzzles have entertained and challenged people for millennia. Not only can they be a fun part of our daily routine, puzzles foster critical thinking, perseverance, and creativity. This class will explore the rich history of puzzles, examining why people are drawn to solving them and how they've been woven into literature and stories. 亚洲通'll study many types of puzzles, including crosswords, logic games, Rubik's cubes, and Wordle. The class will investigate strategies for solving puzzles and develop problem-solving techniques that can be applied to other areas of our lives.
