Factoring Special Cases

Students explore geometric proofs for two factoring rules: a2 + 2ab + b2 = (a + b)2 and x2 – a2 = (x – a)(x + a). Given a set of shapes whose combined areas represent the left-hand expression, they manipulate them to create rectangles whose areas are equal to the right-hand expression.

Algebra Nomograph

This activity is similar to a function machine. The nomograph is comprised of two vertical number lines, input on the left and output on the right. The transformation of input to output is illustrated dynamically by an arrow that connects a domain entry to its range value. Students try to find th...

Examining Patterens in a Table, Function Rule, and Graphs

In this activity, students will identify characteristics of proportional and non-proportional linear relationships by examining patterns in a table, function rules, and a graph. Students will distinguish between proportional and non-proportional relationships by comparing patterns in table, funct...

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.

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...

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...

Cancer Clusters

Students will investigate cancer incidence rates in a number of states. Hypothesis testing is introduced and used along with a two-proportion z-test to compare cancer rates. This activity helps students to determine when a difference in data is actually statistically significant. This should enco...

Move Those Chains

In this activity, students will explore the Chain Rule. Students are asked to make a conjecture of the derivative of f(x) = (2x + 1)2 based on the Power Rule. They are then asked to graph their derivative function and compare it to the graph of f´(x). They will then examine "true" statements abou...

But What Do You Mean?

In this activity, students learn about the concept of mean or average, in addition to learning several ways to find the mean on the TI-Nspire handheld (including using a spreadsheet and the mean command). Students also use these methods to find the mean when given the frequencies of each number i...
