Standard Error and Sampling Means
This lesson involves investigating the relationship between the standard deviation of a population, the area of a set of rectangles, and the standard deviation of the sampling distribution of sample mean areas of the rectangles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/standard-error-and-sampling-means
Finding Extraneous Solutions
Students will solve different types of equations step by step graphically. They will discover that some of the equations have an extraneous solution and they will investigate at which step in solving the equation that these "extra" solutions appear.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-extraneous-solutions
Meaning of Power
In this lesson, samples are generated from a population for a particular hypothesis test, leading to the conjecture that the null hypothesis is actually false.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/meaning-of-power
Claims About Two Proportions
Students test claims about two proportions by calculating test statistics, critical values, and P-values, for both one- and two-tailed tests.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/claims-about-two-proportions
Exponent Rules
This activity allows students to work independently to discover rules for working with exponents, such as the Power of a Power rule. Students also investigate the value of a power whose exponent is zero or negative. As an optional extension, students investigate the value of a power whose exponen...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exponent-rules
Polar Necessities

Chi-Square Tests
In this activity, students will look at a problem situation that involves categorical data and will determine which is the appropriate chi-square test to use.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/chisquare-tests
Riemann Rectangle Errors
Use three Riemann sums used to estimate the area of a plane region.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/riemann-rectangle-errors
Relating Rates - IB
Students are given a situation of water draining out of a cylindrical tank in order to explain the process of solving related rates questions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/relating-rates_1
Center and Spread
Students will recognize that the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) are two ways to measure center and spread.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/center-and-spread
Mean Value Theorem
Calculate slopes of secant lines, create tangent lines with the same slope, and note observations about the functions and slopes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mean-value-theorem_1
Maximums, Minimums, and Zeroes
Determine when a function has a maximum or minimum based on the derivative of the function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/maximums-minimums-and-zeroes
Comparing Two Means
In this activity, students will test hypotheses concerning means of two populations. They calculate the test statistic and the critical values and then graph the critical region and plot the value of the test statistic.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-two-means_1
MacLaurin Polynomials
Students will use TI-Nspire technology to explore MacLaurin polynomials. They will develop polynomials that approximate very special functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/maclaurin-polynomials_1
Conditional Probability
This lesson involves thinking about probability when additional information is given.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conditional-probability
Properties of Logarithms
Logarithms are just another way of writing exponents. Just like exponents, logarithms have properties that allow you to simplify expressions and solve equations. In this activity, students Will discover some of these properties by graphing and confirm them with algebra.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-logarithms
Natural Logarithm
Construct the graph of the natural logarithm function from its definition.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/natural-logarithm
Stretching the Quads
In this activity, students will stretch and translate the parabola given by y = x2 and determine the effects on the equation. Students will also explore finding the vertex and zeros of a parabola and relate them to the equation.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stretching-the-quads
NASA:Taking a Walk in the Neuroscience Laboratories
Within the Neuroscience Laboratories, many different functions are tested. For example, researchers in the Motion Laboratory focus on the post-flight disturbances in balance and gait control—areas with which many astronauts struggle. This laboratory develops training programs that will faci...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--taking-a-walk
NASA - Space Shuttle Launch
Student examine the ascent stage of a NASA space shuttle.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--space-shuttle-launch
NASA - Space Shuttle Ascent
This activity will engage students in a space shuttle launch and introduce them to the different events that take place during the space shuttle's ascent into space.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--space-shuttle-ascent_1
Intersecting the Solutions
In this teacher-led activity, students will learn to solve systems of equations graphically. They will learn the relationship between the algebraic and graphical solutions and create equations that draw upon this connection.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/intersecting-the-solutions
How Many Solutions?
Students graph systems of linear functions to determine the number of solutions. In the investigation, students are given one line and challenged to draw a second line that creates a system with a particular number of solutions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-many-solutions
Are They Truly Random?
Students will develop lists of random numbers generated by the TI-Nspire handheld. They will explore their set of numbers and engage in a discussion of whether the random number generator is truly generating numbers at random. In addition, students will look at statistical models of their num...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/are-they-truly-random
