Confidence Levels for Means

Students will interpret a confidence level as the average success rate of the process used to produce an interval intended to contain the true mean of the population. Students will recognize that as the confidence level increases, on average, the confidence interval increases in width.

Confidence Intervals for 2 Sample Proportions

Do senior citizens and college students have different memories about high school? The activity Confidence Intervals: 2-Sample Proportions involves investigating random samples from two populations from a large Midwestern city with respect to the question: "When you were in high school, did you h...

Intersecting the Solutions

In this teacher-led activity, students will learn to solve systems of equations graphically. They will learn the relationship between the algebraic and graphical solutions and create equations that draw upon this connection.

How Many Solutions?

Students graph systems of linear functions to determine the number of solutions. In the investigation, students are given one line and challenged to draw a second line that creates a system with a particular number of solutions.

Half-Life

Students will explore exponential decay through an experiment and use the gathered data to generate an exponential regression equation. Students will then repeat the process with a data set and forecast future results.

Areas In Intervals

Students use several methods to determine the probability of a given normally distributed value being in a given interval. First, they use the Integral tool to find areas under the curve and to the left of given values. Students continue the activity to find probabilities for which the correspond...

Binomial Pdf- Eye Color

This lesson involves binomial trials, distributions, and probabilities. Students can create the tns file following the steps in Binomial_Pdf_Create_Eye_Color, or they can use the premade file Binomial_Pdf_Eye_Color.tns

Rectangle and Trapezoid Approximations to Definite Integrals

Use visual representation of area estimation methods in order to determine which is most accurate.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trapezoid-and-midpoint-rules

Assessing Normality

In this activity, students will learn four characteristics of a normal curve: the distribution is symmetric and mound-shaped; the mean and median are approximately equal; the distribution meets the 68-95.5-99.7 rule; and the normal probability plot is linear. They will use these to determine if a...

Difference in Means

This activity involves investigating whether a difference really seems to exist between two sample means.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/difference-in-means

Graphical Analysis

Students will analyze graphs of polynomials finding intervals over which the function is increasing or decreasing and positive or negative, as well as the function’s relative minimum and maximum values and x- and y-intercepts.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphical-analysis

The Area Between

Students will find the area between two curves while determining the required amount of concrete needed for a winding pathway and stepping stones.

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.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-many-precalculus

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.

Hypothesis Testing: Means

Students test a claim about a mean with a large sample size using the test statistic and the critical value. They also find the area under the curve to find the p value. Then, students will see how the result would change if they used a one-percent significance level or smaller sample size. An op...
