Vectors

Describes how to use the TI-89 for coordinate system transformations, vector algebra, and vector component transformations. The functions rec2cyl(), cyl2rec(), rec2sph(), and sph2rec() are created in this chapter for vector component transformations and are used in Chapters 10 and 11.

Action-Packed Subtraction Patterns

Students learn to use manipulatives and calculators to explore what happens when they change one number at a time in a subtraction number sentence. They record and develop the pattern that develops.

Action-Packed Stories

Students learn to use whole numbers and the operations of addition and subtraction. They choose a number and create a story using the number selected and illustrate the number story. They represent the action in the story on the calculator.

Who's in the House

Students construct a model of a house, drawing pictures of the people and pets in the house. Students use skip counting strategies to find possible combinations of people and pets that live in their classmates houses with the help of pictures and TI-10.

Electromagnetics

Describes how to use the TI-89 to solve Laplace's equation for two-dimensional electrostatic problems. The separation of variables method provides exact solutions but is restricted to specific geometries. The relaxation method is applicable to any geometry, but it provides only an approximate s...

Marching Columns

Students investigate constructing arrangements of different numbers of manipulatives into equal groups. They learn to use mathematical language, identify patterns with numbers, recognize the commutative property, and transfer the arrangements made with manipulatives to grid paper.

Map It!

Students explore map making. Students read a story, identify the locations of different places in the story, decide the distance between each set of places in the story, and create a map with a legend.

Making Picture Graphs

Students learn to make picture graphs with symbols that represent more than one piece of data.

How do You Measure Up? (with the TI-10)

Students measure weight, height, and length with the help of a balance, scales, rulers, yardstick, and tape measures. They use their TI-10 to find proportions and to round off answers to whole numbers.

Graphs and Fractions

Have students draw squares on graph paper and half some of the squares on the outside. Number all the squares and continue numbering with the halfs. Students are then instructed to create their own ratios such as: 4 halves to eight wholes of odd numbers etc. Encourage student's to be creative by ...

Football Scores

Students will determine the possible combinations of scoring events in a football game to reach a specific end score.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/football-scores

Probability as Relative Frequency

In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event happening. Students investigate the binomial and geometric prob...

Confidence Intervals

Students understand the confidence intervals for a proportion and for a mean. They also examine the confidence intervals for the difference between two means, and for the difference between two proportions.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-intervals

Comparing Distributions of Univariate Data

Students compare univariate data distributions using statistical concepts like boxplots, stemplots, and histograms.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-distributions-of-univariate-data

Describing Categorical Data - Advanced Placement

Students categorize data using tables and bar charts. They also determine relative frequencies.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/describing-categorical-data--advanced-placement

The Normal Distribution

Students graph normal distributions, shade desired areas, and find related probabilities. They graph Normal probability scatter plots to check the normal (linear) shape of a data distribution.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-normal-distribution_1

Exploring Bivariate Data

Students graph scatter plots and understand the concepts of correlation and least-squares regression. They also perform transformations to achieve linearity in the data plot.

Is it Normal

In this activity, students will use the idea of a normal distribution to pull together multiple areas of probability and statistics.
