Inference for Two-way Tables
Students use the chi-square test to analyze whether two categorical variables are independent or dependent calculating expected frequencies, the test statistic and the critical values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inference-for-twoway-tables
Inference for Correlation and Regression
In this activity, students test if a significant relationship exists between a bivariate data set, and then calculate the confidence and predictive intervals. They also improve the interval-prediction capabilities by automating the process.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inference-for-correlation-and-regression
Independence is the Word
Students use a simulation to find the experimental probability of independent events.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/independence-is-the-word_1
Shortest Distance Between Points and Lines
This activity investigates concepts such as the shortest distance between two points in a plane, and the shortest distance between a line and a point not on the line. The analytical explanation of these concepts is supported with visual illustrations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shortest-distance-between-points-and-lines
Hypothesis Testing: Means
Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size at the five-percent significance level. The test statistic is found and compared to the critical value.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hypothesis-testing-means
Shortest Distance Problem
This is a great follow-up to the Introduction to Properties in Reflections. Students may have trouble producing a scaled drawing. Using a scale of 1 to 5 works well. See the figure below for a possible scaled construction.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/shortest-distance-problem
Operations of Integers
This set of multiple choice questions asks students to find the intercepts and vertices of quadratic functions. Solutions are included.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/operations-of-integers

Students simulate a binomial distribution and calculate probabilities for a variety of situations involving binomial probability distributions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/makin-it-through-the-winter
Similar Figures Discovery Activity
Students will use Cabri Jr. to discover two properties of similar triangles: corresponding angles are congruent and corresponding sides are proportional.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/similar-figures-discovery-activity
One- and Two-Variable Statistics--Review
Students review one-variable topics such as graphing quantitative variables, calculating measures of central tendency and spread, and making comparisons.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-and-twovariable-statisticsreview

Perimeter and Area of a Square
Students study the perimeter and area of a square, and explore the relationship between them and the length of the side of the square.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perimeter-and-area-of-a-square
Perimeter of a Rectangel with Fixed Area
Students will investigate the relationship between the base of a rectangle with area of 35 or 36 and its perimeter.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perimeter-of-a-rectangel-with-fixed-area
Percentiles - IB
The goal of this activity is for students to use the area to the left of a value in a normal distribution to find its percentile. The process will then be reversed to find the value for a given percentile. In doing so, students will learn how to use the Normal CDF and Inverse Normal commands on t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/percentiles
It's a Two-Way Street
Students will be introduced to two-way tables by calculating marginal and conditional distributions using formulas in a spreadsheet.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/its-a-twoway-street
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Waste Not" - Sharpshooter
It is believed that an unusually high occurrence of cancer in a small area may represent a "cancer cluster." Because this is rare, it is more likely to be a case of "Texas Sharpshooting." For example, suppose a person randomly shoots a gun several times at the side of a barn and draws a circle ar...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--waste-not--sharpshooter
How Random!
Students use simulations and graphs to explore the common sense notion that repeatedly flipping a coin results in "heads up" about half of the time. First, they simulate an experiment by representing single coin flips with random numbers. Next, they use a given formula to simulate multiple coin f...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-random_1
Perpendicular Bisector Theorem
This activity uses distance measures to investigate the relationship between a point in the plane and the distance to the endpoints of a segment. Students will investigate the implication these relationships have for the position of the point in the plane.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perpendicular-bisector-theorem
