Vectors In Component Form
Students experiment with an interactive 2 dimensional vector and observe the corresponding changes to its representation in i and j component form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vectors-in-component-form
Fundamental Theorem of Algebra
Students generate random polynomials and observe the distribution of the zeros on the complex plane. From the distributions students are able to draw conclusions about the zeros, and therefore roots, of a polynomial in order to gain a better visual understanding of the Fundamental Theorem of Alge...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fundamental-theorem-of-algebra
Tool - Unit Conversion
In this lesson, students are introducted to the basics of how to effectively use this tool. This tool can be used alone, or you can copy/paste it into another TNS document.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tool--unit-conversion
Tool - Chemical Balance
This tool can be used alone, or you can copy/paste it into another TNS document.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tool--chemical-balance
Like Moths Around a Flame
In this lesson, students examine data about moths and draw conclusions of how the environment impacts their populations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/like-moths-around-a-flame
Fill the Vase
Students interpret graphs of empirical data with respect to rate of change of the height of water in vases of different shapes that are being filled at a constant rate. Students are provided with a range of graphs and vases. For each graph they must reshape the vase in order to match the volume –...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fill-the-vase

Limaçons: A Polar Investigation
This activity allows students to investigate the properties of limaçons in the polar forms of both r =a +b*sin(θ) and r =a+b*cos(θ). Using a slider, values of a and b change as students investigate looped or flattened limaçons, as well as, cardioids. Students examine symmetry and the effect...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/limaçons-a-polar-investigation
Vernier - Boyle's law
The primary objective of this experiment is to determine the relationship between the pressure and volume of a confined gas. The gas we use will be air, and it will be confined in a syringe connected to a Pressure Sensor (see Figure 1). When the volume of the syringe is changed by moving the pist...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--boyles-law
Can You Take The Pressure?
Students will use the Vernier EasyLink© and the Gas Pressure Sensor to determine the volume of a gas in a container under different pressures. They will also graph the pressure/volume data and interpret their graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-you-take-the-pressure
Properties of Solutions: Electrolytes and Nonelectrolytes
In this lesson, students will use a conductivity probe to measure conductivity and determine which molecules are responsible for conductivity of solutions. Alternative procedure for the Vernier Go Direct® sensors with CXII is included in the downloads.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-solutions--electrolytes-and-nonelectrolytes
Cipher Solvers
In this code breaking activity, students are challenged to identify patterns, unravel clues, and triangulate a point on a treasure map.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cipher-solvers
Exponential Growth
Students will find an approximation for the value of the mathematical constant e and to apply it to exponential growth and decay problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exponential-growth
Friction: Your Friend or Your Enemy?
In this lesson, students explore static and kinetic friction by dragging shoes with different types of soles across a table at a constant pace. Alternative procedure for the Vernier Go Direct® sensors with TI-Nspire CX II is included in the downloads.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/friction-your-friend-or-your-enemy
Friction and Inclined Planes
Students explore the relationship between mass, coefficient of friction, and motion down an inclined plane.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/friction-and-inclined-planes
Optimization - IB
Students learn how to use the second derivative test to find maxima and minima in word problems and solve optimization in parametric functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/optimization_ns_ib
