Students use a combination of algebra and graphing to discover the properties of logarithms.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-logarithms_1
Stretching a Penny
In this activity, students investigate how a spring stretches when different weights pull on it. They relate the stretch of the spring directly to the weight and vice-versa.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stretching-a-penny
Inequality Graphing App
Students explore inequalities by entering inequalities using symbols, plot their graphs (including union and intersection shades), store (x, y) coordinate pairs as lists, enter inequalities with vertical lines in an X= editor, and trace points of interest (such as intersections) between functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inequality-graphing-app
Quadratic Regression with Transformation Graphing
Students will enter data into lists and graph scatter plots and perform a multiple regression on the plots. They will also make predictions or draw conclusions from the quadratic model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/quadratic-regression-with-transformation-graphing
Intersection
In this activity, students will investigate modeling the motion of two people to find where they will meet and at what rate each was walking.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/intersection
Properties of Parabolas
Students interpret the equation for a parabola in vertex form and gain a visual understanding of a parabola's focal width.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-parabolas_1
Parabola Construction
Students construct parabolas using the focus and directrix definition. They also explore how the location of the focus with respect to the directrix affects the shape of the parabola.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parabola-construction
Orbit Of Jupiter
This activity explores models for the elliptical orbit of Jupiter.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/orbit-of-jupiter
Motorcycle Jump
This activity presents a scenario in which a motorcycle rider jumps off a ramp and travels along a quadratic path through the air.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/motorcycle-jump_1
How Far Will It Go
Students measure and record the total distance traveled by their individual moustrap racers. Using TI-Navigator the individual data is collected and aggregated. The aggregated class data is then sent to the individual student calculcators and students investigate histograms and box plots.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-far-will-it-go
Modeling Probabilities
Students use simulations and graphs to explore what happens when the number of trials of a binomial experiment becomes a large number.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/modeling-probabilities
Guess My Coefficients
Students will represent and analyze mathematical situations and structures using algebraic symbols and understand patterns, relations, and functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/guess-my-coefficients
The Slope of the Tangent Line (Part1)
In this activity, students use the CellSheet™ Application to approximate the slope of a line tangent to a curve.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-slope-of-the-tangent-line-part1
The Slope of the Tangent Line (Part2)
In this activity, students graph the cubic and quadratic functions. They also graph the slope values of the tangent lines for each of the function graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-slope-of-the-tangent-line-part2
Maximizing Your Efforts
Students write an objective function and graph the system of inequalities to find the maximum profit from selling two types of game players.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/maximizing-your-efforts
Operating on Matrices
Students learn how to add, subtract, and multiply matrices, as well as find the determinant and inverse of a matrix.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/operating-on-matrices

Students graph polynomials to determine the value and number of zeros for a given polynomial.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-of-the-many-ways
Radical Functions
Students use a nomograph to investigate functions defined by square roots.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/radical-functions
Taxes & Tips
Students explore the taxes and tips percentages commonly used in stores and restaurants. They will first develop the pattern of converting a percent to a decimal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/taxes--tips_1
Old MacDonald's Pigpen
Students solve a standard maximum value problem using the calculator. Students help Old MacDonald build a rectangular pigpen with 40 m fencing that provides maximum area for the pigs.
