About the Lesson
The purpose of this material is to provide immediate feedback for teachers and students using the TI-Navigator system. The 3D objects in the TI-Nspire documents can be rotated by students to gain different views of the same object and better understand the composite solids. The questions are automatically corrected and summarized using the TI-Navigator software providing teachers with the opportunity to respond to student needs. A PDF copy of the assessment is provided for schools that do not have TI-Nspire and TI-Navigator.
