Somewhere in the Middle

In this activity, students will explore the Mean Value Theorem. Students will find out when the tangent line is parallel to the secant line passing through the endpoints of an interval to help them find the values of c guaranteed to exist by the MVT. Students will also test functions where the hy...

Resampling

This lesson involves approximate sampling distributions obtained from simulations based directly on a single sample. The focus of the lesson is on conducting hypothesis tests in situations for which the conditions of more traditional methods are not met.

Trend or Noise?

This lesson involves investigating aspects of statistical information reported in the media or other venues, aspects that are often misunderstood by those unfamiliar with sampling.

How Many?

Students will explore Bernoulli probabilities. They will use them to calculate the probabilities of various single and cumulative events. They will also explore the Bernoulli probability distribution.

Transforming Relationships

In this activity, students will assess the strength of a linear relationship using a residual plot. They will also calculate the correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination to assess the data set. Students will then learn to transform one or two variables in the relationship to creat...

Why t?

This lesson involves examining the variability of individual elements and their related standardized test statistics when those elements are drawn randomly from a given normally-distributed population.

Why np Min?

This lesson involves examining the general shape of binomial distributions for a variety of values of n and p.

Two-way Tables and Association

This lesson involves analyzing the results of a survey using a two-way frequency table.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/twoway-tables-and-association

Probability Simulations

Students use the random integer (randInt) command to simulate probability experiments. They also graph the number of trials and corresponding probabilities to observe the Law of Large Numbers. Simulated experiments involve tossing a coin, spinning a spinner, and observing the gender of children i...

Normal Probability Plot

This lesson involves creating a normal probability plot for several data sets involving height to examine the appearance of such plots when the distribution is approximately normal.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/normal-probability-plot

Multiple Boxplots

This lesson involves analyzing three parallel boxplots.

Position and Piecewise Velocity

This lesson involves creating and comparing graphical representations of velocity and position based on real-life scenarios.

Catching the Rays

Students will fit a sinusoidal function to a set of data. The data are the number of hours of daylight starting January 1st and collected on the first and sixteenth days of the months in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.

Can You Make My Graph?

Students are to find the equations of graphs of trigonometric functions (using sine and cosine) and will also identify values for the amplitude, period, phase shift, and vertical shift. This activity is a modified version of the activity "What's the Equation?" originally made by Lauren Jensen.

Boats in Motion

Students make observations about the motion of a boat going up and down the river. They will solve the system of equations algebraically and graphically.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/boats-in-motion_1

Multiplication & Division of Functions

Students will determine the resulting functions produced from the multiplication and division of two functions. They will explore the graphical representation of the resulting function and support their algebraic solution by determining if the graphs coincide. Additionally, students will evaluate...
