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...

Fundamental Theorem of Algebra

Students generate random polynomials and observe the distribution of the zeros on the complex plane. From the distributions students are able to draw conclusions about the zeros, and therefore roots, of a polynomial in order to gain a better visual understanding of the Fundamental Theorem of Alge...

Forensics Case 8 - No Dumping: Using soil characteristics to link suspects to a crime scene

In this activity, students measure pH, conductivity, and water absorbency of different samples of soil. They use these characteristic properties to identify soil samples. They use the physical and chemical characteristics of soil samples collected from suspects to determine whether a suspect had ...

Using Sliders and Parameters in Linear Functions

Students will have the opportunity to see the impact of the slope parameter m on a graph of a line in slope-intercept form by using a slider or by changing the values of the parameter. They will have the same opportunity to manipulate b. Questions follow to determine the degree to which the stude...
