Use an LMS With
TI-Nspire™ Math Activities

How do I use an LMS with TI technology and math activities?

It’s easy to use TI’s math activities with a Learning Management System (LMS), TI-Nspire™ CX II graphing calculator and TI-Nspire™ CX II Connect (a free file-sharing app).

Discover how you can quickly add these activities into your classroom by following the steps below.

1
Teacher finds an activity on MathNspired.com.
2

Teacher copies .tns file link address, and then pastes it into the LMS as an assignment.

Tip:

Build an assessment in the LMS, or set up a Google Form (or similar), using questions from the activity.
Check out this lesson with an example.
