Step into the world of logic, patterns, and problem-solving in this intriguing and mentally stimulating course designed to sharpen analytical thinking and creativity. Participants will tackle a variety of mind-bending challenges, from classic logic puzzles and riddles to real-world encryption techniques. By exploring structured approaches to problem-solving, learners will strengthen their ability to break down complex issues, recognize patterns, and think systematically. Beyond puzzles, this course delves into the fascinating history of cryptography, from ancient Caesar ciphers and the Rosetta Stone to modern-day encryption algorithms and cybersecurity applications. Participants will experiment with historical ciphers like the Alberti Disk, Pigpen Cipher, and Vigenère Square, then apply their newfound knowledge to code-breaking activities and real-world encryption methods. The course will also cover the applications of modern cryptography, such as algorithms and RSA encryption, giving students a glimpse into how secure communications are protected today. Whether deciphering secret messages, analyzing famous cryptographic mysteries, or unlocking the secrets behind the Enigma Machine, this course offers a compelling mix of history, mathematics, and creative problem-solving. Students are encouraged to bring a creative mindset, developing new ways of thinking as they engage with the world of cryptography and codebreaking. Get ready to challenge your mind and see the world in a whole new way! Instructor: Saba Soltani, Educator at Collingwood School - Morven Campus
