Posted 05/08/2018 by Alison Pruett

Thanks for stopping by the TI  booth or joining a session at #NCTMannual. We loved meeting all of you! You can check out some of the resources we shared, and download the materials from your favorite exhibitor workshop below.

 

TI Exhibitor Workshops at #NCTMannual 2018

Exploring What's Typical: Understanding the World Through Data
How do you know you can trust the data you see in a news article? Is “statistically significant” practically relevant? In this session we will collected and analyzed data to explore the concept of meaningful results.

Making Math Relevant Through Modeling
Modeling mathematics through applied problems that students can see and touch can develop their understanding of the concepts they are learning. In this session, we did some hands-on experiments that connect math concepts to real-world observations.

Rate of Change: Algebra to Calculus
What if you could help students see slope not as an equation to memorize, but as a representation of real events? We got out of your seats to model relationships between position and time using hands-on data collection and learned some surprising things about teaching rate of change from algebra through calculus.

Driving On Mars: A Coding Problem
Have your students wondered how driverless cars work? Have you considered the math that it takes for vehicles to drive on Mars? In this session, we programmed the new TI-Innovator™ Rover using mathematics to drive, make turns and complete a challenge. Best part: no coding experience needed and we used the TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculator.

The Mathematics Behind A Zombie Apocalypse
A zombie “virus” is spreading – people are turning into zombies! Will you be the next victim? In this session, we used math to model the spread of the virus through a population, and learned how to weave science concepts into your next lesson about exponential and logistic growth. (No zombies were harmed in this session.) You can find the activities for TI-Nspire™ CX technology and TI-84 Plus CE graphing calculators here.
