Do you want to send secret messages in codes? Now’s your chance! In this course, we’ll examine codebreaking both literally and metaphorically. We’ll read literature featuring codes, books about codes, and books about people who stretched social codes. We’ll use what we learn about codes to encrypt and decrypt messages. We’ll also watch some related videos, study the history of codes, and learn the mathematics behind cryptography and cryptanalysis. Join us and break the code for college success!
