The Classic Box Problem - Calculus

The Box_Problem_Calculus.tns document takes a classic problem from calculus and uses the dynamic linking capabilities of TI-Nspire to enact the problem in multiple representations: diagramatic, graphic, numeric, geometric, and symbolic. The problem is posed on the title screen shown at the right.

Binomial Experiments

Students use the multiplication rule for independent events to find the probability of the first success in the nth trial. Students use their results to derive and test a general formula. Then, students expand on this foundation to derive and test a rule for the probability of x successes in n tr...

Exponentialis ~ Logarithmus

In this story-style activity, students work through a step-by-step review of solving exponential equations using logarithms. At first, they are guided through process of using logarithms and checking them, with the help of 'Terry Plotter the mathemagician'. Then, students review identities and pr...

Influencing Regression

This lesson involves a least-squares regression line fit to a set of nine values.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/influencing-regression

Influence and Outliers

In this activity, students will identify outliers that are influential with respect to the least-squares regression line. Students will describe the role of the location of a point relative to the other data in determining whether that point has influence on the least-squares regression line.

One- and Two-Variable Statistics--Review

In this activity, students will review the concepts that they have learned thus far in statistics. The first part of the activity includes one-variable topics such as graphing quantitative variables, calculating measures of central tendency and spread, and making comparisons. The second part incl...

Somewhere in the Middle

In this activity, students will explore the Mean Value Theorem. Students will find out when the tangent line is parallel to the secant line passing through the endpoints of an interval to help them find the values of c guaranteed to exist by the MVT. Students will also test functions where the hy...

Transforming Relationships

In this activity, students will assess the strength of a linear relationship using a residual plot. They will also calculate the correlation coefficient and coefficient of determination to assess the data set. Students will then learn to transform one or two variables in the relationship to creat...
