Pendulum Swing – Part 1
Students use a motion detector (CBR) and pendulum (fishing float) to collect data for the motion of a pendulum. The quality of the data never ceases to amaze students and teachers. Students align practical knowledge, logic and familiarity with the various parameters to transform a basic trigono...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pendulum-swing--part-1
Tool - Chemical Balance
This tool can be used alone, or you can copy/paste it into another TNS document.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tool--chemical-balance
Like Moths Around a Flame
In this lesson, students examine data about moths and draw conclusions of how the environment impacts their populations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/like-moths-around-a-flame
Ecology Assessment
This TI-Nspire™ question set (.tns) has assessment questions relating to Biology: Ecology.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ecology-assessment
Gradient of a function
This activity introduces the notion of the gradient of a curve. Initial exploration involves a dynamic tangent where students can use prior knowledge of the gradient of a straight line to determine if the slope is negative, zero or positive. The second stage of the activity goes one step further ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/gradient-of-a-function
Fill the Vase
Students interpret graphs of empirical data with respect to rate of change of the height of water in vases of different shapes that are being filled at a constant rate. Students are provided with a range of graphs and vases. For each graph they must reshape the vase in order to match the volume –...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fill-the-vase
Sweating Alcohol
In this lesson, students will measure and graph the rate at which room-temperature water and alcohol cool as they evaporate. Then, they will draw a conclusion about the rates at which polar and nonpolar liquids evaporate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sweating-alcohol
Building Support for Early Career Educators
... end of this workshop, participants will have established a starting foundation to help build the knowledge, skills and support necessary to become successful educators.

Limaçons: A Polar Investigation
This activity allows students to investigate the properties of limaçons in the polar forms of both r =a +b*sin(θ) and r =a+b*cos(θ). Using a slider, values of a and b change as students investigate looped or flattened limaçons, as well as, cardioids. Students examine symmetry and the effect...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/limaçons-a-polar-investigation
Vernier - Vapor Pressure of Liquids
Students investigate the relationship between the vapor pressure of liquid and its temperature. They use a Pressure Sensor and a Temperature Probe to collect pressure and temperature data. Students compare the vapor pressure of two liquids.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--vapor-pressure-of-liquids
Boyle's Law
In this lesson, students use the Gas Pressure Sensor in an inquiry activity to understand Boyle's Law through experimentation and data collection. Students will also visualize the particle level with help of a simulation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/boyles-law_1
Can You Take The Pressure?
Students will use the Vernier EasyLink© and the Gas Pressure Sensor to determine the volume of a gas in a container under different pressures. They will also graph the pressure/volume data and interpret their graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-you-take-the-pressure
Properties of Solutions: Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes
In this lesson, students will use a conductivity probe to measure conductivity and determine which molecules are responsible for conductivity of solutions. Alternative procedure for the Vernier Go Direct® sensors with CXII is included in the downloads.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-solutions--electrolytes-and-nonelectrolytes
T³™ TLC - Dallas 2025
...rements in the process of becoming a T3™ Instructor is to complete the T3™ TLC program. We recognize it is not always possible for educators to have access to such a program in their area. Thus, we are providing this opportunity to a select group of educators to participate, open for both mathema...https://education.ti.com/en/t3-professional-development/t3-community/t3-instructors/t3-tlc-dallas
