10 Minutes of Code - Applications
Have you finished Units 1 to 4 of 10 Minutes of Code for TI-Basic? Try these applications. A game, an algorithm, an amazing sequence and a little chaos, these applications have it all. Each task incorporates mathematics with coding and an opportunity to put your learning to the test. Are you ready?
Babylonian Algorithm
Unit 2 Application: Functions vs Programs, the Babylonian algorithm is one of the oldest mathematical algorithms. What does it do? What should I use, Function or Program?
Flying
Unit 3 Application - Function or Program, which one should you use? This activity requires students to think about the differences between functions and programs through the context of an amazing squence. There are lots of opportunities to extend, enrich and explore.
Chaos
Unit 4 Application - Students use a loop to recursively find a midpoint between an existing point and a randomly selected vertex on a triangle. Where will the points end up. If you thought the Unit 3 Application was amazing, wait until you see this surprise result!Lessons
Develop skills for 21st-century success with free project-based learning activities that help students explore, understand and connect the principles of science, math, coding, engineering design and electronics.
