Light at a Distance: Distance and Light Intensity
In this activity, students will use a light sensor to record the light intensity at various distances from a bulb. They will compare the data to an inverse square and a power law model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-at-a-distance-distance-and-light-intensity
Geometric Sequences & Series
Students find common ratios of geometric sequences on a spreadsheet and create scatter plots of the sequences to see how each curve is related to the value of the common ratio and/or the sign of the first term of the sequence.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/geometric-sequences--series_1
Perms and Combs?
Students will use built-in commands to evaluate factorials, combinations, and permutations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perms-and-combs
Balloons
This activity is about gathering data to create a scatter plot and then look at a line of best fit. Students will measure the circumference of a blown up balloon and then they will time how long it takes the balloon to deflate. They will enter this information in to their lists and then graph t...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/balloons
The Tortoise and the Hare
Students develop patterns using two or more rational number quantities. They comprehend the concept of functions by understanding the relationship between these quantities and their sums.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-tortoise-and-the-hare
Let Us Count the Ways!
Students evaluate expressions using permutations and combinations of data elements on the calculator. They solve problems using these counting principles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/let-us-count-the-ways
How Close is Close?
Students compute statistical measures like the mean, standard deviation, and variance of the data set. They understand how measures of variability can be interpreted.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-close-is-close
Number Crunching! Number Munching!
Students comprehend the order of operations and apply this understanding to simplify and evaluate expressions. They also learn to represent problems that involve variable quantities with expressions and use the calculator as a tool to solve problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-crunching-number-munching
