On Ramp to Robotics Unit 1- Motion Control
Students will learn and use basic concepts for robotic vehicle control, and write programs that will drive the TI-Innovator™ Rover.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/on-ramp-to-robotics-unit-1@-motion-control
Walk the Line - 84
This activity will introduce the Calculator-Based Ranger™ 2 motion sensor and the Vernier EasyData® app. Students will collect data and analyze both linear and non-linear data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/walk-the-line_84
Sound of the Bouncing Ball
In this activity, students will develop a mathematical model that is based on the time interval of the sound the ball makes on impact between consecutive bounces. They will then use the model to predict how long the ball would (theoretically) bounce.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sound-of-the-bouncing-ball
Getting into the Swing (Pendulum)
In this activity, students will explore how a pendulum moves by placing a pendulum bob directly across from a CBR™ 2 motion sensor. Distance and time data are collected for several swings. The graph of the data can be modeled by a sinusoidal function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/getting-into-the-swing_ns

Cooling Down - 84
In this activity, students will collect data as a heated temperature sensor cools for three minutes, graph the cooling curve, and determine a model to fit the temperature versus time data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cooling-down_84
Breast Cancer: When Good DNA Goes Bad
This problem-based learning simulation takes students inside the real world of cancer research, diagnostics and treatment.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/breast-cancer
