Box Plot Comparison

In this activity, students will create dot plots and box-and-whisker plots of the temperatures of three different cities along the United States' East Coast: Caribou, Maine, Washington, DC, and Tampa, Florida. Students will make dot plots for each city and compare the representations to one ano...

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.

Z-Scores

This lesson involves finding the area under the standard normal curve with mean 0 and standard deviation 1 for a given distance from the mean and compare this to the area under the curve for another member of the family of normal curves.

Linear Inequalities

Students first look at tables of values to see that inequalities are true for some values of the variable and not for others. They then graph simple inequalities, comparing the handheld output with graphs they create on paper. The last two problems have students solve one-step linear inequalities...

Comparing Prices

Students will compare average U.S. gasoline prices per gallon for two years. Then they will use the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) to measure the center and spread of price data.

Move Those Chains

In this activity, students will explore the Chain Rule. Students are asked to make a conjecture of the derivative of f(x) = (2x + 1)2 based on the Power Rule. They are then asked to graph their derivative function and compare it to the graph of f´(x). They will then examine "true" statements abou...

The Derivatives of Logs

Students will use the Chain Rule to find the derivative of more complex exponential and logarithmic functions.

Graphs of Polynomial Functions

The activity begins by having students compare functions to introduce the concept of end behavior. Then they graph cubics and quartics, noting the respective end behaviors for positive and negative leading coefficients. Finally, they compare quadratics to quartics and cubics to quintics to discov...

Solids of Revolution

Students will investigate 3D visualizations of volumes created by rotating a function about the x-or y-axis. They will understand the concept and reason for the volume formula in order to be prepared for generalizations. Students will solve the definite integral by hand using the fundamental theo...

Taylor Polynomial Examples

Taylor polynomials associated with five common functions.

t Distributions

Students compare the t distribution to the standard normal distribution and use the invT command to find critical values for a t distribution.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/iti-distributions_1

Family of t Curves

This lesson involves investigating how a t-distribution compares to a normal distribution.

Too Many Choices!

Students investigate the fundamental counting principle, permutations, and combinations.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/too-many-choices_1

Probability Simulations

Students use the random integer (randInt) command to simulate probability experiments. They also graph the number of trials and corresponding probabilities to observe the Law of Large Numbers. Simulated experiments involve tossing a coin, spinning a spinner, and observing the gender of children i...

Comparing Linear and Exponential Functions

Compare data from two different scenarios -- linear and exponential growth.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-linear-and-exponential-functions_1

Position and Piecewise Velocity

This lesson involves creating and comparing graphical representations of velocity and position based on real-life scenarios.

Comparing Linear and Exponential Data

Compare a linear and an exponential relationship.

It's a Parallelogram, You Say?

Students represent complex numbers in the complex plane as points or vectors and display the sum and difference of two complex numbers as diagonals of the parallelograms they define.

It's All About Food Activity

This is a follow up activity to You Are What You Eat where students are comparing estimated calories versus actual calories and making conjectures based on their scatterplot graphs.

Properties of Logarithms - IB

In this activity, students will compare logarithmic properties to their exponential counterparts.

The Function Elevator

This lesson involves creating and comparing graphical representations of position and velocity functions from a scenario.

Compound Interest

This lesson involves exploring the formula for compound interest as a function of the initial deposit, interest rate, and the number of pay periods per year.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/compound-interest

Compositions Graphically

Students will use graphs and tables to find compositions of functions. Two of the compositions presented in this activity represent real-world situations, which should aid in students understanding the concept of compositions.
