SD: Measure of Spread

This lesson is intended as an introductory activity to the concept of standard deviation.

SD: How Far is Typical?

This lesson involves gaining a basic understanding of what standard deviation is measuring by examining the location of data around the mean.

Scatterplot Pulse Rates

This lesson involves creating a scatterplot and fitting a line to student pulse rates collected before and after exercise.

Sampling

Students learn about each of the four types of random sampling methods and use the randInt command to find each kind of sample from a given population.

Goodness-Of-Fit

Students test claims of whether given distributions "fit" theoretical distributions. Students will work through two problems, one in which the theoretical proportions of each category are the same and one in which they are not. Students will use spreadsheets to calculate test statistics and the I...

Testing Claims About Proportions

Students find z-scores and critical values to test claims about proportions. To verify the results, they find P-values by either finding the area under the curve with the Integral tool, or by using the 1-Prop z Test command.

Stratified Sampling

This lesson involves determining which of three different sampling methods - a simple random selection design and two stratified selection designs - would be most beneficial in selecting a survey sample within a given context.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stratified-sampling

Z-Scores

This lesson involves finding the area under the standard normal curve with mean 0 and standard deviation 1 for a given distance from the mean and compare this to the area under the curve for another member of the family of normal curves.

Statistical Inference: Confidence Intervals

The students will construct 1-proportion confidence intervals. This lesson begins by having the students construct a confidence interval with the formula and then leads them through the steps needed to use the Nspire's statistical applications to construct confidence intervals. Students would do ...

Inverse Variation

Students explore multiple representations of the inverse variation function, beginning with a geometric representation (a rectangle with fixed area), and progressing to a table of values, an algebraic expression, and finally a graph.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inverse-variation

Standard Error and Sampling Means

This lesson involves investigating the relationship between the standard deviation of a population, the area of a set of rectangles, and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean areas of the rectangles.

Square it Up!

Students investigate the method of least squares by adding the squares to a scatter plot and moving a line to find the minimum sum. Then they compare their line to the built-in linear regression model.

Finding Extraneous Solutions

Students will solve different types of equations step by step graphically. They will discover that some of the equations have an extraneous solution and they will investigate at which step in solving the equation that these "extra" solutions appear.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-extraneous-solutions

Claims About Two Proportions

Students test claims about two proportions by calculating test statistics, critical values, and P-values, for both one- and two-tailed tests.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/claims-about-two-proportions

Exponent Rules

This activity allows students to work independently to discover rules for working with exponents, such as the Power of a Power rule. Students also investigate the value of a power whose exponent is zero or negative. As an optional extension, students investigate the value of a power whose exponen...

Chi-Square Tests

In this activity, students will look at a problem situation that involves categorical data and will determine which is the appropriate chi-square test to use.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/chisquare-tests

Linear Inequalities

Students first look at tables of values to see that inequalities are true for some values of the variable and not for others. They then graph simple inequalities, comparing the handheld output with graphs they create on paper. The last two problems have students solve one-step linear inequalities...

Relating Rates - IB

Students are given a situation of water draining out of a cylindrical tank in order to explain the process of solving related rates questions.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/relating-rates_1

Center and Spread

Students will recognize that the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) are two ways to measure center and spread.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/center-and-spread

Mean Value Theorem

Calculate slopes of secant lines, create tangent lines with the same slope, and note observations about the functions and slopes.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mean-value-theorem_1

Candy Pieces

Students will be introduce to hypothesis testing. Students are given the number of pieces by color in a bag of candy. They are asked if they think the bag could have come from a manufacturing process designed to produce equal proportions of each color. They will then use a chi-square test for goo...

Comparing Prices

Students will compare average U.S. gasoline prices per gallon for two years. Then they will use the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) to measure the center and spread of price data.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-prices

Comparing Two Means

In this activity, students will test hypotheses concerning means of two populations. They calculate the test statistic and the critical values and then graph the critical region and plot the value of the test statistic.

Confidence Levels for Proportions

This activity involves generating a confidence interval for a population proportion from a random sample of size 100 and considering how certain one can be that this interval contains the actual population proportion.
