This lesson involves estimating the values of two irrational numbers using a number line with increasing precision of scale.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-root-2
Scaling the Geometry
This lesson involves scale drawings of actual images on the TI-Nspire handheld.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scaling-the-geometry
F Distribution
Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values. Students then use the Fcdf command to find probabilities and to confirm percentiles. They move on to find critical values and then compute a conf...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/f-distribution_1
What! A Mistake!
Students learn about Type I and Type II errors. Then, for a given scenario, students will calculate the probabilities of errors and the power of the test.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-a-mistake_1
Scatterplot Pulse Rates
This lesson involves creating a scatterplot and fitting a line to student pulse rates collected before and after exercise.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scatterplot-pulse-rates
Testing Claims About Proportions
Students find z-scores and critical values to test claims about proportions. To verify the results, they find P-values by either finding the area under the curve with the Integral tool, or by using the 1-Prop z Test command.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/testing-claims-about-proportions_1
Square it Up!
Students investigate the method of least squares by adding the squares to a scatter plot and moving a line to find the minimum sum. Then they compare their line to the built-in linear regression model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/square-it-up
