Texas Instruments challenges students to find ways to make the world safer and healthier in new coding contest
...at are relevant to them and impacting their teenage lives now,” said Peter Balyta, president of TI Education Technology. “Fueled by a healthy dose of competition from teams around the country, we are excited to see what health-related ideas students will come up with that can improve lives during...https://education.ti.com/en/about/press-center/3-09-2021-ti-codes-contest
Trigonometric Ratios
Students discover the trigonometric ratios through measuring the side lengths of similar triangles and calculating their ratios. The formal definitions of the sine, cosine, and tangent or an angle are presented and applied to find the missing side lengths.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trigonometric-ratios_1
Finite Differences
Investigate the sets of finite differences for linear and quadratic functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finite-differences
Tello Drone with TI Technology | Texas Instruments
...students can program their TI-Nspire™ CX II or TI-84 Plus CE Python graphing calculators to make any one of the family of Tello drones fly. With the combination of Tello and TI technology, students will learn to: Develop real-world text-based programming skills. Build valuable STEM ski...https://education.ti.com/en/product-resources/tello-drone
Bouncing Ball
In this activity, students examine the motion of a ball as it falls under the influence of gravity. The parameters in the vertex form of the quadratic equation Y = A(X - H)2 + K are determined to describe the behavior of a ball bounce.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/bouncing-ball
How High Will it Bounce?
Students collect the height versus time data of a bouncing ball using the CBR 2™. They find the relationship between the bounce number and the bounce height. They also learn to graph scatter plots, calculate the maximum value of a parabola, analyze and find an exponential regression for the rebou...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-high-will-it-bounce

Exploring Hyperbolas
Students will explore the hyperbola by investigating links between its standard equation form and its graph. They will also discover the center and the focal lengths of the hyperbola as well as see applications of the hyperbola in the real world.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-hyperbolas
Motorcycle Jump
Students will explore quadratic functions in the form of a motorcycle jumping off of a ramp. Students will maximize the height of the jump and the airtime of the jump.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/motorcycle-jump
Exploring Higher Degree Polynomials
Investigate graphical and algebraic representations of a polynomial function and its linear factors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-higher-degree-polynomials
Modeling Probabilities
This activity approaches probability distributions as functions taking information about a dataset as inputs and outputting a set of probabilities. This is analogous to the familiar process of choosing a function to model a set of x-y pairs. Students use simulations to explore increasing number o...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/modeling-probabilities_1
Binomial Probabilities
Students begin with a hands-on experiment of rolling a die and keeping track of the numbers of successes and failures. They then simulate their experiment by using the randBin command on their handheld. Next, they use the binomPdf command to find the theoretical probabilities and compare their ex...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/binomial-probabilities_1
Graphs of Rational Functions 2
Investigate the graphs of rational functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-rational-functions2
100 or Bust
Students explore the operations of addition and subtraction. They use estimation, a place value chart, and a calculator to place seven randomly generated numbers in the ones and tens position in a place-value chart to make a sum as close to 100 as possible.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/100-or-bust
Symmetry with Pattern Blocks
Students learn to use pattern blocks to build a design that has a line of symmetry. They use the calculator to determine the value of half the design. They predict and then find the value of the entire design.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/symmetry-with-pattern-blocks
CONSTANT-ly
Students investigate a pattern using the constant function on the calculator, record the results displayed on the calculator, and describe how the constant key works.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constantly
Heat Transfer
In this lesson, students will investigate a closed system of particles that can be heated or cooled.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/heat-transfer
