NASA - Space Shuttle Ascent: Mass vs. Time
In this activity, students explore the ascent phase which begins at liftoff and ends when the space shuttle reaches Earth's orbit. The space shuttle must accelerate from zero to approximately 7,850 meters per second (which is approximately 17,500 miles per hour) in eight and a half minutes to re...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--space-shuttle-ascent-mass-vs--time
Forensics Case 6 - Measuring Momentum: Using distance moved after impact to estimate velocity
This activity introduces the concept of momentum as it applies to vehicle collisions. Students accurately gather data of collision of a vehicle with a stationary object, and establish a relationship between the distance an object moves after a collision with a vehicle and the momentum of the vehi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-6--measuring-momentum-using-distance-moved-after-impact-to-estimate-velocity
Forensics Case 12 - Hit and Run: Using information from an event data recorder to reconstruct an ac
Students learn how distance traveled, velocity, and acceleration are related to one another and how the appearance of an acceleration, velocity, or distance vs. time graph can be used to predict the appearance of the other graphs. They show how accident scenes can be recreated through an analysis...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-12--hit-and-run-using-information-from-an-event-data-recorder-to-reconstruct-an-ac

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Traffic" - What is Random
In "Traffic", Charlie lectures about randomness, explaining that 'our brains misperceive evenness as random and wrongly assume that groupings are deliberate'. In mathematics, we expect to see some clustering, or an occasional appearance of a pattern, when examining truly random events. In this ac...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--traffic--what-is-random
The Spread of Disease
In this activity, students simulate the spread of a disease in a population. They use the Probability Simulation application to learn that certain sums occur more often than others because of combinations of addends of those sums.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-spread-of-disease
Calculating the Area of a Triangle Using Heron's Formula
Students will measure the lengths of the sides of three different triangles and apply Heron's Formula to calculate the area in acres. The measurements for this activity may be done outside or, using a specified scale, completed inside. Students will calculate the area using their graphing calcul...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/calculating-the-area-of-a-triangle-using-herons-formula
Saving for Graduation
