Graph My Center
Students create a box plot or histogram. They will find measures of central tendency and identify which best describes the data set.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graph-my-center
Population Mean: σ unknown
Students calculate confidence intervals to estimate the true population mean when the standard deviation of the population is not known.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/population-mean--σ-unknown
Normal Distribution
Collecting Data paper, pencil and a coin A quiz has 6 true false questions. You do not get to see the quedstions, but instead will flip a coin for each of your answers. Perform the following steps to see how many questions you can answer correctly without seeing the questions. Step 1 Flip a co...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/normal-distribution
Transforming Relationships
Students assess the strength of a linear relationship using a residual plot and calculate the correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination to assess the data set.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transforming-relationships
Tiles in a Bag
How many tiles would you have to pick to be confident that your estimated probability truly represents the situation? In this activity, you will draw a tile from a bag, record its color and put it back in the bag. The bag contains 24 tiles some blue and some green. A green tile is considered a s...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tiles-in-a-bag
Stretching Slinkies
This lesson provides students with the opportunity to explore the TI-84 graphing calculator in conjunction with Microsoft Excel®. Students will use the "Stretching Slinkies" worksheet to record and enter data. They will either: enter data into Microsoft Excel to synch with the TI-84, OR, enter da...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stretching-slinkies
Best Class
Students will create and explore a box plot and histogram for a data set. They then compare the two data displays by viewing them together and use the comparison to draw conclusions about the data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/best-class
Rotations in the Coordinate Plane
It is important for students to know what happens to the coordinates of points when they are rotated in the coordinate plane by 90 or 180 degrees, either clockwise or counterclockwise. This activity enables students to use Cabri Jr. to develop this understanding.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/rotations-in-the-coordinate-plane
Relationship Between Radius and Tangent to a Circle
Generalize that a tangent and a radius form a 90-degree angle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/relationship-between-radius-and-tangent-to-a-circle
Sail Problem (Parallel Lines & Segment Relationships)
In this activity, students will explore the proportional relationships involved in multiple parallel lines being cut by transversals. These relationships are approached through exploration of a sail design problem, where students are to find the lengths of pieces of fabric along the edge of a s...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sail-problem-parallel-lines--segment-relationships
SAS Triangle Congruence
Students will: 1.Construct a triangle and measure one pair of sides and the contained angle 2.Construct a second triangle with corresponding sides equal in length and congruent corresponding angles 3.Try to alter the properties of their construction by moving the verticeshttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sas-triangle-congruence
In It to Win It!
Students will calculate the experimental probability of winning a basketball game by shooting two free-throws using a random integer simulation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/in-it-to-win-it
Exploring Slope: Slope on the Slopes
Students take a field trip to a local ski area(or simply a nearby hill) and calculate the slope of a hill at several positions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-slope-slope-on-the-slopes
Trigonometric Ratios
Students discover the trigonometric ratios through measuring the side lengths of similar triangles and calculating their ratios. The formal definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent or an angle are presented and applied to find the missing side lengths.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trigonometric-ratios
Zooooooom!
This activity uses times collected for a radio control car traveling certain distances to create a regression line to analyze and discuss as a class. If the car(s) cannot be obtained, you can use students to run the distances.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/zooooooom
Working Hard or Hardly Working?
Students analyze univariate and bivariate data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/working-hard-or-hardly-working
