NUMB3RS - Season 2 -"Hot Shot" - A Stab in the Dark
In "Hot Shot," two victims of a possible serial criminal are found. Charlie uses kernel density estimation as a method for predicting a change in behavior to indicate a connection between the victims and the criminal.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2-hot-shot--a-stab-in-the-dark
Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students will be sent ordered pairs through lists using the TI-Navigator™. These pairs will then be graphed as a line graph and students will classify the shape of the quadrilateral and justify their choice.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-quadrilaterals
Classifying Quadrilaterals
Students receive two Cabri Jr. files of quadrilaterals on a coordinate plane. They use their knowledge of quadrilaterals to give each one the most precise name. They may find the length and/or slope of the sides using the measuring tools of Cabri Jr. to assist in their classification.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classifying-quadrilaterals_1
Watching Your Weight - TI-83
