Finally, they will use the Transformation Graphing App to fit the data using a linea...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-linear-equations_2
Exploring Linear Relationships -- Stacking Cups and Walking Rates
In this activity, students will explore several examples of linear relationships. They will use a table to organize data that they collect and will make graphs to display that data. Students are prompted to write equations and interpret slope as a rate of change.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-linear-relationships--stacking-cups-and-walking-rates

One Sided Limits
Students will be given piecewise functions and asked to evaluate both the left-hand limit and the right-hand limit of the function as x approaches a given number, c. Using sliders, students will estimate the value of the missing variable that makes the left-hand limit and the right-hand limit equal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/one-sided-limits_1
Conics In Winter
Students explore conic graphing using a polar notation equation and determine the effects the various variables on the graph.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conics-in-winter

How I overcame my fear of mathematics and finally understood the world
...I was playing something, I was happy. Throughout high school, athletics was far and away my No. 1 purpose in life. On the other end of the spectrum – quite possibly the farthest thing away from my interests – was mathematics. The mere thought of math made me anxious. What was the point of memoriz...https://education.ti.com/en/bulletinboard/2017/january/overcoming-fear-of-math
