NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Double Down" - That's So Random
In "Double Down," three college students attempt to get an edge in a casino card game by analyzing the mechanical randomization process used to shuffle the cards. As Charlie explains, the auto-shuffler relies on an algorithm to deal the cards in random order. The students are able to crack the al...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--double-down--thats-so-random
Discovering the Quadrilateral Properties
This activity will use Cabri™ Jr. to allow students' the ability to discover all of the properties of each quadrilateral, rather than simply copying them out of a textbook.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discovering-the-quadrilateral-properties
Exploring the Circumcenter of a Triangle
In this activity, students develop an understanding of the circumcenter of a triangle. Students construct perpendicular bisectors of three sides of a triangle and find the circumcenter. NCTM Geometry Standard covered: Analyze characteristics and properties of 2- and 3-dimensional geometric shape...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-circumcenter-of-a-triangle
