Higher Order Derivatives
Students will calculate the second derivative of functions, inspect a graph and give the intervals for concave up and concave down and find the point of inflection.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/higher-order-derivatives
Linear Approximation - 2
Students graph the functions, construct the tangent line at a point, and find an estimate from a linear approximation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linear-approximation_2
The Exponential Derivative
Students will derive the derivative of the function y = ex, work with the derivative of both y = eu and y = ax, and look at the tangent to the graph of y = ex. In the process, the students will have to find the limit as h approaches 0 of (eh?1)/ h.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-exponential-derivative
Xtreme Calculus: Part 2
Students explore distance-time and velocity-time graphs to deepen their understanding of the application of the derivative.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/xtreme-calculus-part-2
Volume by Cross Sections
Students explore the concept of finding the volume of a solid formed by cross sections of a function that form certain shapes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/volume-by-cross-sections
"Value"able Theorems
Students are introduced to the Intermediate Value Theorem and Extreme Value Theorem from a graphical perspective.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/valueable-theorems
One Sided Limits
Students will graph piecewise functions and be asked to evaluate both the left hand limit and the right hand limit of the function as x approaches a given number, c.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-sided-limits

Absolute Value Investigation
The activity is an investigation about the graphs of absolute value functions. Given the function f(x) draw a graph of abs(f(x) and f(abs(x)).https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/absolute-value-investigation
