NASA - An Astronaut in Motion

...motion capture technology. By using the motion capture technology, a segment of the body (e.g. the lower arm) can be tracked in 3-D as it moves. Conducting ground-based research with this technology is helping NASA designers and engineers develop efficient tools and equipment, non-restrictive sp...

Nonlinear Systems of Equations

Students will be introduced to nonlinear systems of equations. It begins by allowing students to move figures around the screen to see ways certain types of graphs (linear/conic and conic/conic) can intersect each other and how many possible intersection points are possible. The activity conclude...

Properties of an Ellipse

Students discover properties of an ellipse, such as the set of all points such that the sum of the distances from these points to two fixed points is constant.

Reduce It!

Students write augmented matrices for systems of equations and then solve the system by writing the augmented matrix in reduced row-echelon form.

How Many? (Precalculus)

Students will be presented a situation in which they must use linear programming to determine the optimum production level to maximize profits.

Application of Area Formulas

Students will be able to find the area of polygons by breaking a polygon into familiar shapes, such as triangles, rectangles, and trapezoids.

Vertical and Adjacent Angles

In this introductory or review activity, students will explore vertical and adjacent angles. They will define and identify pairs of angles. Then they will change the intersecting lines of a geometric model to make conjectures about the relationships of the pairs of angles.

Density Curves

Students will be introduced to density curves as a simple analysis of a data set. They also will investigate where the median and mean lie on symmetric or skewed graphs.

Discriminating Against the Zero

In this introductory activity, students explore when a graph has two zeros, one zero, and no real zeros. They will also determine when a graph has real, rational, irrational, or imaginary roots. The teacher should then follow up with a formal discussion on the discriminant.

Exploring Exponents

Students will investigate and describe negative and zero exponents on the base. Then, students will apply the properties of integer exponents to generate equivalent expressions.

Modeling Virus Spread

In this TI-Nspire activity, students will explore a simple introduction to the idea of logistic growth through an easily acted out simulation: spread of a virus through a population.

100 or Bust

Students explore the operations of addition and subtraction. They use estimation, a place value chart, and a calculator to place seven randomly generated numbers in the ones and tens position in a place-value chart to make a sum as close to 100 as possible.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/100-or-bust

Patterns in Division

Students investigate how the quotients and remainders from integer division relate to the quotients from rational number division in both fraction and decimal form.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/patterns-in-division

Symmetry with Pattern Blocks

Students learn to use pattern blocks to build a design that has a line of symmetry. They use the calculator to determine the value of half the design. They predict and then find the value of the entire design.

Making Multiples

In this lesson, students will use a simulation to explore asexual and sexual reproduction.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/making-multiples

Lynx and Snowshoe Hare Cycle

In this lesson, students will analyze a predator/prey graph that represents the population cycling of the lynx and the snowshoe hare.

Classification Challenge

In this lesson, students will analyze and describe how organisms are classified according to shared characteristics.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/classification-challenge

Heart and Lungs - The Beat Goes On

In this lesson, students will study the effect of exercise on heart rate, respiratory rate, and airflow in and out of the lungs.
