Playing games is more than just a post-work activity. Playing games with numbers and diving into math as the language of science is the key. Science is about real, tangible things that move, fly, explode, burn, haul loads, float, record images, and stop diseases.
With practice anyone can learn to speak this language.
Together, TI and Ten80 have created five exciting lessons that use TI Graphing Technology. Access these activities by clicking on the title.
