Cell Size and Transport Assessment
This TI-Nspire™ question set (.tns) has assessment questions relating to Biology: Cell Size and Transport.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cell-size-and-transport-assessment
Discrimination of Parabolas
Students manipulate progressively more flexible parabolas whilst a ‘special number’ is displayed on the screen. The problem for students to solve is ‘what is so special about this number’. Students continually review their conjectures as the parabola becomes more and more flexible.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discrimination-of-parabolas
Resolving Vectors
Students observe the relationship between a vector and its x- and y-components.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/resolving-vectors
Graphs of Antiderivatives
Students use their TI-Nspire to graph the anti-derivative of a function and investigate aspects of the this function and how it relates to the primitive function. For example, if a continuous derivative function changes from negative to positive, what does this produce on the primi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-antiderivatives
Light Intensity
Students investigate the relationship between light intensity and distance with a flashlight. They use the collected data to identify a mathematical model for the relationship. They then compare this model with the inverse-square law for an ideal point source.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-intensity
Skills of Science - Creating Lab Reports
In this lesson, students see how to use PublishViewTM to create lab reports using the TI-Nspire computer software.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/skills-of-science--creating-lab-reports
Sound Intensity
Students investigate the relationship between sound intensity and distance for a commercial loudspeaker. They use collected data to identify a mathematical model for the relationship. They then compare this model with the inverse square law for an ideal point source.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sound-intensity
Thirst Quenchers Inquiry
In this lesson, students test the conductivity of common solutions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/thirst-quenchers-inquiry
Chemical Formulas and Bonds Assessment

Capacitors
Students explore the characteristics of capacitors. The activity begins with a look at the movement of charge in a parallel-plate capacitor and the effect of voltage on charge. Following the definition of capacitance, students explore how plate area, plate separation, and dielectrics affect capac...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/capacitors
Charge Transfer
In this lesson, students will explore and compare various processes of charge transfer by induction and by contact.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/charge-transfer
Chemical Bonding Assessment

Induced Magnetic Fields
In this activity, students will use a strong permanent magnet to induce a magnetic field in a metal object. They will measure the magnitude and direction of the magnetic field around the permanent magnet and around the induced magnet. They will also compare how magnetic field strength changes wit...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/induced-magnetic-fields

Tower of Hanoi
Students explore the relationship between the number of discs and moves required to solve the classic “Tower of Hanoi” problem. The TI-Nspire file contains an interactive model produced by Andy Kemp. The interactive model allows you to change the number of disks and automaticall...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tower-of-hanoi
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
Students generate random polynomials and observe the distribution of the zeros on the complex plane. From the distributions students are able to draw conclusions about the zeros, and therefore roots, of a polynomial in order to gain a better visual understanding of the Fundamental Theorem of Alge...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fundamental-theorem-of-algebra
Award Winning Data
Arguably the most famous awards in the world, but are the Academy Awards® ageist and sexist? The mean age of female winners is 36 compared with males at 44, but Jessica Tandy (Driving Miss Daisy) won an award at age 81, the oldest award recipient. Katherine Hepburn won an award at age 74. Wha...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/academy-awards
Vectors Introduction
An introduction to vectors visually, conceptually and numerically. Students manipulate vectors to show addition (head to tail) and the parallelogram rule. Students use a column matrix to represent a vector and explore scalar multiples and the magnitude of a vector.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vectors-introduction
