Laplace Analysis: The s-domain

Demonstrates the utility of symbolic algebra by using the Laplace transform to solve a second-order circuit. The method requires that the circuit be converted from the time-domain to the s-domain and then solved for V(s). The voltage, v(t), of a sourceless, parallel, RLC circuit with initial co...

How Salty Is It?

Students learn to solve a real-world problem involving salt water. Students will determine the amount of sea salt needed to turn an aquarium into a simulated salt-water environment. They also experiment with items and check their buoyancy in water with varying salt concentrations.

How do You Measure Up? (with the TI-10)

Students measure weight, height, and length with the help of a balance, scales, rulers, yardstick, and tape measures. They use their TI-10 to find proportions and to round off answers to whole numbers.

Hat Trick

Students learn to solve a real-world problem in economics. Students get to understand how surveys often use a sample of people rather than all of the people involved. They also learn how to make decisions based on the results of a sample survey.

Graphs and Fractions

Have students draw squares on graph paper and half some of the squares on the outside. Number all the squares and continue numbering with the halfs. Students are then instructed to create their own ratios such as: 4 halves to eight wholes of odd numbers etc. Encourage student's to be creative by ...

Football Scores

Students will determine the possible combinations of scoring events in a football game to reach a specific end score.

Probability as Relative Frequency

In this activity, students use simulation to justify the concept of the Law of Large Numbers. They understand that as the sample size increases, the relative frequency of which an event occurs approaches the probability of that event happening. Students investigate the binomial and geometric prob...

Confidence Intervals

Students understand the confidence intervals for a proportion and for a mean. They also examine the confidence intervals for the difference between two means, and for the difference between two proportions.

Comparing Distributions of Univariate Data

Students compare univariate data distributions using statistical concepts like boxplots, stemplots, and histograms.

Mean As a Fair Share

This lesson introduces students to mean as a way to describe the center of a set of data. Often called the average, the mean can also be visualized as “leveling out” the data in the sense of “fair share”.

Describing Categorical Data - Advanced Placement

Students categorize data using tables and bar charts. They also determine relative frequencies.

The Normal Distribution

Students graph normal distributions, shade desired areas, and find related probabilities. They graph Normal probability scatter plots to check the normal (linear) shape of a data distribution.

Exploring Bivariate Data

Students graph scatter plots and understand the concepts of correlation and least-squares regression. They also perform transformations to achieve linearity in the data plot.

Graphical Displays of Univariate Data

Students will sort data and construct stemplots, dotplots, histrograms, and frequency plots.

Sampling Distributions

Students studies the distribution of sample proportions with a simulation. They find small sample size leads to skewed distribution and as the sample size increases, the distribution becomes more normal.

Sampling Distribution of Differences

This activity covers the distribution of a difference between two independent sample proportions or two independent sample means.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling-distribution-of-differences

Tests of Significance

Students understand how tests of significance can be performed with confidence intervals. They use a simulation to clarify the meaning of a hypothesis. Students examine large sample tests for a proportion, mean, difference between two proportions, and difference between two means. They also study...

Summarizing Distributions of Univariate Data

Students understand statistical concepts like center of data and the amount of data variation from the center. They calculate the measures of the center of a distribution and the measures of spread for the data collected as a list. Students also create boxplots for the data. They examine the effe...

Similarity and Dilations

Students will discover properties of similar figures using the TI-89 and CABRI Geometry II to use dilations to dynamically manipulate figures. (Topic - Similar Figures and the Role of Dilations)

Surface Area of Cylinder Song

Here's a silly song that I use with my classes to help them remember how to find the surface area of cylinders. My students actually suggested that I submit this!

Parallel or Perpendicular-What's Your Inclination?

This activity has students discover the relationship between parallel and perpendicular lines and their slopes. After constructing these objects using CABRI Geometry II for the TI-89, slopes are measured. (Topic - parallel and perpendicular lines)

Parallelograms - Discovering Their Properties

Students use the TI-89 with CABRI™ Geometry to discover properties of parallelograms. They will construct a figure and use the definition to disvoer the figure is a parallelogram. (Topic - parallelograms)
