Motorcycle Jump
Students will explore quadratic functions in the form of a motorcycle jumping off of a ramp. Students will maximize the height of the jump and the airtime of the jump.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/motorcycle-jump
Discriminating Against the Zero
In this introductory activity, students explore when a graph has two zeros, one zero, and no real zeros. They will also determine when a graph has real, rational, irrational, or imaginary roots. The teacher should then follow up with a formal discussion on the discriminant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discriminating-against-the-zero

Investigate graphical and algebraic representations of a polynomial function and its linear factors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-higher-degree-polynomials
Getting into the Swing (Pendulum) - 84
In this activity, students will explore how a pendulum moves by placing a pendulum bob directly across from a CBR™ 2 motion sensor. Distance and time data are collected for several swings. The graph of the data can be modeled by a sinusoidal function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/getting-into-the-swing_84
Cooling Down - 84
In this activity, students will collect data as a heated temperature sensor cools for three minutes, graph the cooling curve, and determine a model to fit the temperature versus time data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cooling-down_84
Function or Relation?
