The German Tank Problem

Students will develop an understanding of sampling distributions by exploring the methods used to estimate the number of German tanks in existence during WWII

Solve Me - One and Two-Step Inequalities

Students will use the TI-Nspire CAS to check their steps used to solve one and two-step inequalities. They will also use the solve feature to verify that they have the correct solution at the end of each problem. While solving inequalities, many students make careless mistakes with simplifying...

Solve Me - Multi-Step Equations

Students will use the TI-Nspire CAS to check the steps they used to solve multi-step equations and equations with variables on both sides. They will also use the solve feature to verify that they have the correct solution at the end of each problem. While solving equations, many students make ...

SD: Measure of Spread

This lesson is intended as an introductory activity to the concept of standard deviation.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sd--measure-of-spread

SD: How Far is Typical?

This lesson involves gaining a basic understanding of what standard deviation is measuring by examining the location of data around the mean.

Scatterplot Pulse Rates

This lesson involves creating a scatterplot and fitting a line to student pulse rates collected before and after exercise.

Sampling

Students learn about each of the four types of random sampling methods and use the randInt command to find each kind of sample from a given population.

Goodness-Of-Fit

Students test claims of whether given distributions "fit" theoretical distributions. Students will work through two problems, one in which the theoretical proportions of each category are the same and one in which they are not. Students will use spreadsheets to calculate test statistics and the I...

German Tanks: Exploring Sampling Distributions

In this lesson, students will estimate the largest number of a population based on random samples from the population, as statisticians did in WWII.

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.

Stratified Sampling

This lesson involves determining which of three different sampling methods - a simple random selection design and two stratified selection designs - would be most beneficial in selecting a survey sample within a given context.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stratified-sampling

Z-Scores

This lesson involves finding the area under the standard normal curve with mean 0 and standard deviation 1 for a given distance from the mean and compare this to the area under the curve for another member of the family of normal curves.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/zscores

Statistical Inference: Confidence Intervals

The students will construct 1-proportion confidence intervals. This lesson begins by having the students construct a confidence interval with the formula and then leads them through the steps needed to use the Nspire's statistical applications to construct confidence intervals. Students would do ...

Inverse Variation

Students explore multiple representations of the inverse variation function, beginning with a geometric representation (a rectangle with fixed area), and progressing to a table of values, an algebraic expression, and finally a graph.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/inverse-variation

Polar Graphs

Relate polar coordinates to rectangular coordinates and plot polar functions.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polar-graphs

Standard Error and Sampling Means

This lesson involves investigating the relationship between the standard deviation of a population, the area of a set of rectangles, and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean areas of the rectangles.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/standard-error-and-sampling-means

Square it Up!

Students investigate the method of least squares by adding the squares to a scatter plot and moving a line to find the minimum sum. Then they compare their line to the built-in linear regression model.

Finding Extraneous Solutions

Students will solve different types of equations step by step graphically. They will discover that some of the equations have an extraneous solution and they will investigate at which step in solving the equation that these "extra" solutions appear.

Meaning of Power

In this lesson, samples are generated from a population for a particular hypothesis test, leading to the conjecture that the null hypothesis is actually false.

Claims About Two Proportions

Students test claims about two proportions by calculating test statistics, critical values, and P-values, for both one- and two-tailed tests.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/claims-about-two-proportions

Exponent Rules

This activity allows students to work independently to discover rules for working with exponents, such as the Power of a Power rule. Students also investigate the value of a power whose exponent is zero or negative. As an optional extension, students investigate the value of a power whose exponen...
