NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Democracy" - I Never Metadata I Didn't Like
In "Democracy", Charlie investigates the death of a friend. He finds columns of numbers on her computer, and because they are not labeled, he does not know what they mean. He explains, "Numbers tend to come in groups 'it's called metadata' information about data". In this activity, students will ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--democracy--i-never-metadata-i-didnt-like
Transient Circuit Analysis: Symbolic
Describes how to use the differential equation solver, deSolve(), to solve first- and second-order circuits containing resistors, capacitors, inductors, DC sources, and exponential sources. It also shows how to graph the solutions and find the zero crossing and peak values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transient-circuit-analysis--symbolic
Laplace Analysis: The s-domain
Demonstrates the utility of symbolic algebra by using the Laplace transform to solve a second-order circuit. The method requires that the circuit be converted from the time-domain to the s-domain and then solved for V(s). The voltage, v(t), of a sourceless, parallel, RLC circuit with initial co...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/laplace-analysis--the-sdomain
What Makes a Food Nutritious?
Students will analyze select nutritional values of specific food products and then compare those values to the recommended daily allowances published by the U.S.D.A. They will calculate percentages and fractions based upon the information they find.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-makes-a-food-nutritious
What's Half of a Half of a Half?
Students will use a physical model to determine what happens when they repeatedly halve a piece of paper, and then they reassemble the pieces into a whole. They then use an algebraic model to analyze the same situation, which leads to an introductory discussion of limits.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-half-of-a-half-of-a-half_1
What's So Special About 11?
Students will compute multiples of numbers in search of patterns. As a class, they'll discover patterns in multiples of 9; then they'll do the same with patterns in multiples of 11. They will then practice writing the rule for 11, both verbally and algebraically, to summarize the discovered patte...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11
Absolute Values
Students will review the set of integers along with the addition and subtraction of integers using a number line. Then, they will learn that the absolute value of a number is defined as the distance from zero. Students will learn how to interpret the absolute value symbol algebraically, as well a...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/absolute-values
