Box It Up (A Graphical Look)
Students graph the relationship between the length of the sides of the cut-out squares and the volume of the resulting box. They trace the graph to decide the best square-size which can result in a box of maximum volume.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/box-it-up-a-graphical-look
Continuous Compounding
In this activity, students deal with financial computations, where the interest is compounded continuously. Depending on the length of each compounding period, students will determine the number of compounding periods.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/continuous-compounding
Trains in Motion
Students will make observations about the motion of two objects. They will compare and contrast this motion and consider how it corresponds to a graph representing distance as a function of time.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trains-in-motion
Complex Numbers
Students calculate problems to determine the rules for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing complex numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/complex-numbers
What's Your Combination
Students are first introduced to the counting principle and the factorial symbol. Then, they will calculate combinations and permutations using these formulas and the nCr, n!, and nPr commands on the graphing calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-your-combination
Graphing Families of Quadratic Functions
Students will use the Transfrm app to explore families of quadratic functions. Generalization about the effect of a, b and c coefficients have on the shape and position of the graph in general form, and the effect of a, h, and k in vertex form, will be summarized by students in their own words. S...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphing-families-of-quadratic-functions
Exploring Circles
Explore the relationship between the center and radius of a circle and the equation of the circle. Collect data and determine regression equations related to various combinations of data, and use the regression equations to make predictions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-circles
Algebra II and the TI-83+
This session will examine how the TI-83+ can be used to improve instruction in Algebra II classes. We will look at different objectives from the Algebra II curriculum and examine several ways that calculators can improve student performance.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/algebra-ii-and-the-ti83
The Calcumites are Coming! - TI-83
Students model the growth of a population and compare ideal growth with a population whose growth is limited. They use technology to find exponential and logistic regression equations and use them to plot models.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-calcumites-are-coming--ti83
From a Distance...You Can See It!
Students find the distance between points using common fractions and decimals, with the concepts of midpoint and distance. They also learn to solve problems using the Pythagorean theorem.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/from-a-distance---you-can-see-it
Titanic Tales
Students interpret data tables and graphs. They find percentages and create circle graphs to display data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/titanic-tales
Looking at Statistics Through Circles
Students will measure round objects to determine the circumference and diameter, and use the data to explore geometric concepts of the circle with statistics.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/looking-at-statistics-through-circles
Parts is Parts
Students find a sample of a given size with a given mean. Students will show one way 100 families can have a mean of 2.58 children and understand the meaning of the term "average."https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/parts-is-parts
Picnic Challenge
Students find patterns to solve problems, explore functions, and graph linear functions on the coordinate plane.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/picnic-challenge
LRAM_RRAM_MRAM -- A Graphical Investigation of how area under a curve is approx with rectangles.
This activity is designed for the student to investigate how area bounded by a curve and the x-axis can be approximated with areas of rectangles using LRAM, RRAM, MRAM.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lram_rram_mram--a-graphical-investigation-of-how-area-under-a-curve-is-approx-with-rectangles
How Hot Is It?
Students who are familiar with the two most common standards of measuring temperature learn how to reliably convert from degrees Celsius to degrees Fahrenheit. Students also see how order of operations is crucial in an equation, through discussion and data entry on the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-hot-is-it
