Transforming "F" on the coordinate plane

Students move their cursor in activity center to occupy a unique point on a background letter "F" in quadrant 1. Students then together follow a rule for going to a different point (such as "use the opposite of the original x coordinate") and sketch the resulting transformation on their worksheet...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "All's Fair" - Guess My Type or Lose

In "All's Fair," Charlie attempts to use social image typology to analyze motivations and strategies to determine which person(s) would be most likely to commit a terrorist act. With social image typology, one can study why people make decisions that they do. Based on what they know about each su...

The Tangent Ratio

In this activity students explore the tangent ratio. Students construct a right triangle using perpendicular lines, and a line that forms the hypotenuse of the triangle. When students construct the hypotenuse line it is very important that the second point that forms the line is not on the perpen...

NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Assassin" - The Escape Game

In "Assassin," Charlie is trying to figure out where a killer might strike given that he knows who the victim will be. By analyzing the movements of the would-be victim, Charlie models the decisions that the assassin will make. This is an example of behavioral game theory, where the motives of tw...

Experimentally Calculating Pi

Because the diameter of a circle is related to the circumference of a circle, we can find this constant relationship by measuring several lids and fitting a regression line to the data. The slope of this line is pi. This is a great activity to allow students to discover that Pi is the relations...
