Are all Constructions Created Equal?
This activity is designed to give preservice teachers an introduction to the circle, compass and line tools in the Graphs & Geometry application of the TI-NSpire. The set of four investigations are designed to provide them with ideas on how to assess geometric constructions by identifying the dif...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/are-all-constructions-created-equal
Helping students learn how to use built-in functions on the TI nspire
Students will follow step-by-step directions to become familiar with how to use the TI nspire's built in functions. Tutorial includes converting to decimal, approximating fractions, finding remainders, finding LCM, using factorials, creating mixed numbers, and factoring numbers to their prime fac...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/helping-students-learn-how-to-use-builtin-functions-on-the-ti-nspire
F Distribution
Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values. Students then use the Fcdf command to find probabilities and to confirm percentiles. They move on to find critical values and then compute a conf...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/f-distribution_1
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.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/square-it-up
Chi-Square Distributions
Students compare the Chi-Square distribution to the standard normal distribution and determine how the Chi-Square distribution changes as they increase the degrees of freedom.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/chisquare-distributions_1
t Distributions
Students compare the t distribution to the standard normal distribution and use the invT command to find critical values for a t distribution.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/iti-distributions_1
Family of t Curves
This lesson involves investigating how a t-distribution compares to a normal distribution.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/family-of-t-curves
Probability Distributions
Students list outcomes for probability experiments such as flipping a coin, rolling number cubes, and observing the sex of each child born in a family. They use these outcomes to record the values of random variables, such as number of tails, sum of the cubes, and number of boys. Students then cr...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/probability-distributions_2
