Discrimination of Parabolas
Students manipulate progressively more flexible parabolas whilst a ‘special number’ is displayed on the screen. The problem for students to solve is ‘what is so special about this number’. Students continually review their conjectures as the parabola becomes more and more flexible.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discrimination-of-parabolas
Resolving Vectors
Students observe the relationship between a vector and its x- and y-components.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/resolving-vectors
Give Me Five
This activity explores the calculations of the five figure summary: {min, Q1, median, Q3 and max}. How is an outlier determined? What is positive / negative skew? By physically dragging the maximum point students can determine when the whisker ‘breaks’ and an outlier is created. T...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/give-me-five
Light Intensity
Students investigate the relationship between light intensity and distance with a flashlight. They use the collected data to identify a mathematical model for the relationship. They then compare this model with the inverse-square law for an ideal point source.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-intensity
Vernier - Introduction to Data Collection with TI-Nspire
