Forensics Case 10 - Dropped at the Scene: Blood spatter analysis
In this activity, students graph data to find quantitative relationships and create a standard reference curve for comparison with unknown data. They analyze blood spatters and examine r2 values for linear, natural logarithm, quadratic, and power curve fit. They find the curve that best fits the ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-10brdropped-at-the-scene-blood-spatter-analysis
Forensics Case 4 - Flipping Coins: Density as a characteristic property
In this activity, students identify counterfeit coins based on the characteristic property of density. They model data using a linear equation, interpret the slope and intercept values from a linear model, and identify a characteristic property of a substance.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/forensics-case-4brflipping-coins-density-as-a-characteristic-property
Constant Weight Gain
Students find information in different types of graphs, organize information to construct graphs, and make predictions based on graphs. They also learn to use the calculator to perform constant operations of addition and subtraction.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constant-weight-gain
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Take Out" - Restaurant Ranking
In "Take Out", a series of restaurant invasions turn deadly. The FBI asks Charlie to help, so he develops a predictive model to try to identify the next restaurant that will be targeted. He says that 'it's a way of investigating a group of things -- in this case, restaurants -- and identifying th...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--take-out--restaurant-ranking
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Take Out" - No Fly Zone
In "Take Out", a series of restaurant robberies prompts the FBI to ask Charlie to help predict the restaurant most likely to be targeted next. Charlie says that it can be thought of like a spider catching its prey in a web. Even the best constructed web can not catch all insects. There exist regi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--take-out--no-fly-zone
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Spree, Part II - Daughters" - Galton Board
In this activity, students will study Galton boards. A Galton board is a vertical or inclined board with a series of staggered pins arranged in a triangle. As balls are dropped from the top of the board, they strike the pins and will fall either to the left or to the right and eventually land in ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--spree-part-ii--daughters--galton-board
Antennas
Describes how to perform basic antenna and radiation calculations with the TI-89. Antenna patterns, radiation resistance, radiation integrals, and phased array patterns are included.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/antennas
Data Analysis and Probability
Students explore the basics in data analysis and probability.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/data-analysis-and-probability
Analyzing Number Cube Sums
Students extend their understanding of theoretical probability and patterns. They use number cubes, to build awareness that a fraction and its decimal and percent representation on the calculator are "close," but not necessarily equal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/analyzing-number-cube-sums
How do You Measure Up? (with the TI-10)
Students measure weight, height, and length with the help of a balance, scales, rulers, yardstick, and tape measures. They use their TI-10 to find proportions and to round off answers to whole numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-do-you-measure-up-with-the-ti10
Hat Trick
Students learn to solve a real-world problem in economics. Students get to understand how surveys often use a sample of people rather than all of the people involved. They also learn how to make decisions based on the results of a sample survey.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hat-trick
Probability as Relative Frequency
In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event happening. Students investigate the binomial and geometric prob...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/probability-as-relative-frequency
Describing Categorical Data - Advanced Placement
Students categorize data using tables and bar charts. They also determine relative frequencies.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/describing-categorical-data--advanced-placement
The Normal Distribution
Students graph normal distributions, shade desired areas, and find related probabilities. They graph Normal probability scatter plots to check the normal (linear) shape of a data distribution.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-normal-distribution_1
Set Design
Students will use similarity concepts, and the dimensions of the carvings on Mt. Rushmore to create a proportional representation of the carvings for a stage backdrop.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/set-design
Creating Word Problems
Students write word problems based on the whole numbers generated by the calculator. They decide on an operation to solve the problems. Finally, they analyze the problems to determine the problem characteristics when using operations on whole numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/creating-word-problems
Looks Right
Students use the Cabri Geometry II Plus software to determine which given triangle retains its basic shape after its vertices are dragged around the screen.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/looks-right
Homestead-Miami Chase Activity
In this activity, students will investigate whether it is better to take the shortest path or the fastest path.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/homesteadmiami-chase-activity
