Rare Diseases, Hopeful Research
This problem-based activity gives middle grades and high school science students a glimpse into the research laboratory.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/rare-disease
Stations Activity: Graphing Calculator Boot Camp
Build up students’ core skills with the TI-84 series calculator including tips on how to undo common mistakes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/boot-camp
Task Card Activity for Algebra 1 Statistics
Give students a self-guided activity to practice their Algebra 1 statistics skills — at their own pace.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/task-card
Buying a Car Activity with the TVM Solver (Time, Value, Money)
Students learn real-world math skills and financial literacy by calculating car payments with the TVM Solver.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/buying-a-car-w-tvm-solver
The Classic Box Problem Exploration- 84
In this lesson, students take the classic optimization box problem and uses multiple mathematical representations to maximize the volume of the box.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classic-box-exploration@-84
Making Limits Exist
In this activity, students will graph piecewise functions and evaluate numerically and graphically the left hand limit and the right hand limit of the function as x approaches a given number, c.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-limits-exist
Old McDonald's Pigpen
In this activity, students explore – numerically, graphically, algebraically, and verbally – the mathematics involved in maximizing the area of a rectangle with a fixed perimeter.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/old-mcdonalds-pigpen
Secant Lines
In this activity, students will observe the slopes of the secant and tangent line as a point on the function approaches the point of tangency.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/secant-lines
Limits of Indeterminant Forms
In this activity, students will graph f(x)=sin(x)/x in order to visually determine the limit as x approaches zero. They will confirm the answer numerically by tracing left and right limit points on a graph and looking at values in a table.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/limits-of-indeterminant-forms
Approximating the Area Under a Curve
In this activity, students will explore approximating the area under a curve using left endpoint, right endpoint, and midpoint Riemann sums.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/approximating-the-area-under-a-curve
Voronoi Diagrams
In this TI-84 family activity, students will create Voronoi Diagrams and apply them to real world scenarios.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/voronoi-diagrams_84
Extrema and Concavity
Students learn how to find and label extrema using first and second derivatives, be able to inspect a graph and determine which extrema the function has, and be able to use trace, fMin, and fMax to verify the computed answers and find critical values for parametric functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/extrema-and-concavity
