Nspired Crossword NC
This activity is designed for students completely new to TI-nspire. No mathematical knowledge is required to complete this task. Students complete a crossword puzzle where the clues relate to application menus and the answers are the menu items. The activity helps students navigate TI-Nspire and ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nspired-crossword-nc
Graphs of Antiderivatives
Students use their TI-Nspire to graph the anti-derivative of a function and investigate aspects of the this function and how it relates to the primitive function. For example, if a continuous derivative function changes from negative to positive, what does this produce on the primi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-antiderivatives
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 - Sound Waves and Beats
In this lesson, students will use the microphone to measure the frequency and period of sound waves from tuning forks.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--sound-waves-and-beats
Vernier - Using DataQuest
This appendix gives an overview of using the Vernier DataQuest™ application on a TI-Nspire handheld and software. It includes information on accessing the common tools in the DataQuest Application.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--using-dataquest
Work and Power
Students explore the relationship between power, work, and time. They also explore the relationship between power, force, and speed. Based on these explorations, students derive the equation P = Fv and solve problems dealing with power in various mechanical problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/work-and-power
Vernier - Reaction Stoichiometry
In this lesson, students use a temperature probe to investigate an acid-base reaction in order to write balanced chemical equations and determine mole ratios.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--reaction-stoichiometry
Vernier - Acid-Base Titration
In this lesson, students will use a pH sensor to monitor the pH of a solution and determine the equivalence point.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--acidbase-titration
Ionizing Radiation
In this lesson, students will practice and review atomic physics concepts and equations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ionizing-radiation
AC Circuits
Students explore a model of alternating electric current. They observe the effects of varying voltage, angular velocity, frequency, and phase shift on the shape of the waveform. They also calculate the relative phase shift between two waveforms. Finally, they create a model of a three-phase alter...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ac-circuits
Balancing Torques and Forces
In this activity, students explore the conditions necessary to produce static equilibrium using first-, second-, and third-class levers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/balancing-torques-and-forces
