Vernier - Water Quality - TDS (Total Dissolved Solids)
In this activity, students will use the Vernier Conductivity Probe to measure the Total Dissolved Solids in samples of water.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--water-quality--tds-total-dissolved-solids
Hooke's Law: The Rest of the Story
Students study Hooke's Law. They explore the linear behavior of a spring as it is pulled downward and understand that stretch on a spring is directly proportional to the force applied to the end of the string. Students create scatter plots, calculate slopes, and discuss positive and negative slopes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hookes-law-the-rest-of-the-story
Vernier - Bungee Jump Accelerations
Students use an Accelerometer to analyze the motion of a bungee jumper and determine a point where there is maximum and minimum acceleration in the course of the motion. They also compare the experimental data with an actual bungee jump.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--bungee-jump-accelerations
Vernier - Evaporation and Intermolecular Attractions
Students will study temperature changes caused by the evaporation of alkenes and alcohols and relate this data to the strength of intermolecular forces of attraction. They will also predict, and then measure, the temperature change for other liquids.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--evaporation-and-intermolecular-attractions
Subnivean Comfort
Students measure and compare air temperatures inside and outside a snow shelter. If students choose to sleep in the shelter overnight they use the temperature measurements to confirm what they discover experientially- that snow is a great insulator!https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/subnivean-comfort
Vernier - Reflectivity of Light
In this activity, students will use a Light Sensor to measure reflection values from paper of various colors and compare these values to reflection values of aluminum foil. They will also calculate percent reflectivity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--reflectivity-of-light
Vernier - The Magnetic Field in a Slinky
Students use a Magnetic Field Sensor to measure the magnetic field and the current in a solenoid. They explore factors that affect the magnetic field, study how the field varies in parts of the solenoid, and determine the permeability constant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--the-magnetic-field-in-a-slinky
Vernier - Graphing Your Motion with EasyData™ App and CBR 2™
Students will use a CBR 2™ motion detector to measure distance and velocity. Students prepare graphs of motion and analyze them. They compare and match graphs of distance versus time and velocity versus time.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--graphing-your-motion-with-easydata-app-and-cbr-2
Vernier - Friction
Students study how the nature of two materials in contact, and the smoothness of their surfaces affect the magnitude of the sliding force of friction. They use a force sensor to measure frictional force for different surfaces.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--friction
Simulation of the Photoelectric Effect for the TI-83+/TI-84+ Graphing Calculator
The simulation generates photoelectrons into a retarding potential difference. Students can adjust the retarding potential so that the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons can be found. With this information and the wavelength of the photon that generated the photoelectron, Planck's constant ca...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/simulation-of-the-photoelectric-effect-for-the-ti83ti84-graphing-calculator
Only Half There?
Students use measuring tools and calculators to make half-sized drawings of themselves.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/only-half-there
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
Graphing Motion: Instantaneous and Average Speed (Follow up activity: Scalar and Vector Quantities)
Students are introduced to the calculator as a graphing tool and distinguish between average speed and instantaneous speed.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphing-motion-instantaneous-and-average-speed-follow-up-activity-scalar-and-vector-quantities
Yards of Tin
Students solve a problem involving surface area of cylinders. They find the surface area and the amount of tin needed to make the cylindrical parts of ten long open pipes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/yards-of-tin
Mean As a Fair Share
This lesson introduces students to mean as a way to describe the center of a set of data. Often called the average, the mean can also be visualized as “leveling out” the data in the sense of “fair share”.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mean-as-a-fair-share-bc
Thrift Store Markdowns
Students will calculate a series of discounts using increasing unit fractions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/thrift-store-markdowns
