Create a pair of parallel lines cut by a transversal and investigate the relationships among the angles that are created.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/creating-parallel-lines-and-transversals
Chords and Circles
Students will begin this activity by exploring how the chord in a circle is related to its perpendicular bisector. Investigation will include measuring lengths and distances from the center of the circle. These measurements will then be transferred to a graph to see the locus of the intersection ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/chords-and-circles
Special Right Triangles
Examine two types of special right triangles and determine the predictable relationships between the lengths of their legs and hypotenuse.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/special-right-triangles
Histograms
This lesson involves the interpretation of different types of histograms: frequency histograms, relative frequency histograms, and density histograms.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/histograms
Spacecraft Radar Tracking
In this lesson, students will calculate and interpret the meaning of the correlation coefficient and coefficient determination.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/spacecraft-radar-tracking
Analyzing Country Data
In this activity, students will examine sample ages from three countries displayed in a spreadsheet and in relative frequency histograms that highlight the distinctive features of the distribution of the ages from each sample.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/analyzing-country-data
Does a Correlation Exist?
In this activity, students will determine, by examining a graph, if a data set has a positive or negative correlation coefficient. Then, they will find the linear regression equation and calculate the correlation coefficient. They will use this line to predict the value of y for a given x and vic...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/does-a-correlation-exist
Nspired Crossword NC
This activity is designed for students completely new to TI-nspire. No mathematical knowledge is required to complete this task. Students complete a crossword puzzle where the clues relate to application menus and the answers are the menu items. The activity helps students navigate TI-Nspire and ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nspired-crossword-nc
Cell Size and Transport Assessment
This TI-Nspire™ question set (.tns) has assessment questions relating to Biology: Cell Size and Transport.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cell-size-and-transport-assessment
Polarization of Light
Students use data collected during a lab to explore the relationship between polarized light and light intensity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polarization-of-light
Discrimination of Parabolas
Students manipulate progressively more flexible parabolas whilst a ‘special number’ is displayed on the screen. The problem for students to solve is ‘what is so special about this number’. Students continually review their conjectures as the parabola becomes more and more flexible.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discrimination-of-parabolas
Potential and Kinetic Energy
Students explore the relationship between the mass, energy, and angle of a projected object fired from an idealized cannon.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/potential-and-kinetic-energy
Resolving Vectors
Students observe the relationship between a vector and its x- and y-components.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/resolving-vectors
Graphs of Antiderivatives
Students use their TI-Nspire to graph the anti-derivative of a function and investigate aspects of the this function and how it relates to the primitive function. For example, if a continuous derivative function changes from negative to positive, what does this produce on the primi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-antiderivatives
Cell Structure & Function
In this lesson, students will use cell model diagrams to interact with both animal and plant cells and explore the structure and function of the organelles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cell-structure--function
Give Me Five
This activity explores the calculations of the five figure summary: {min, Q1, median, Q3 and max}. How is an outlier determined? What is positive / negative skew? By physically dragging the maximum point students can determine when the whisker ‘breaks’ and an outlier is created. T...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/give-me-five
Light Intensity
Students investigate the relationship between light intensity and distance with a flashlight. They use the collected data to identify a mathematical model for the relationship. They then compare this model with the inverse-square law for an ideal point source.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-intensity
Magnetic Field of a Coil - Data Collection
In this lesson, students will explore the proportional relationship between the magnetic flux density at the center of a long, electrically charged coil and the strength of the electrical current.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/magnetic-field-of-a-coil--data-collection
Mechanical Advantage
