Living on the Edge
Students find the edge length of an octahedron when given its volume.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/living-on-the-edge
Constructing an Ellipse
Students explore two different methods for constructing an ellipse.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/constructing-an-ellipse
Building curves
Students approach performing the basic operations on the polynomials from a graphical perspective. Given the graphs of two functions, they plot points that lie on the graph of the sum of the functions and draw conclusions about its behavior. Next, they calculate a regression to fit the points the...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/building-curves
Sequence Investigation
Students use the calculator to create an arithmetic sequence and explore the effect of each variable in the formula of the nth term of an arithmetic sequence.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sequence-investigation
Exploring Circles
Explore the relationship between the center and radius of a circle and the equation of the circle. Collect data and determine regression equations related to various combinations of data, and use the regression equations to make predictions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-circles
Scatterplots and Correlation with TI-83
Students learn how to enter a list of data and use these lists to graph two-variable statistics. They learn how to analyze the resulting scatterplots to assess the correlation between two variables.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/scatterplots-and-correlation-with-ti83
Advanced Algebra Nomograph
Students use a nomograph, or type of function machine, to determine the rule of several functions by entering values of x and observing how the value of y changes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/advanced-algebra-nomograph_1
Roots of Radical Equations
Square and cubic root equations are given for students to graph and find intersections with the x-axis.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/roots-of-radical-equations_1
Binomial Probability in Baseball
In this activity, students will explore the link between Pascal's Triangle, the Binomial Theorem, and Binomial Probability Experiments.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/binomial-probability-in-baseball
Sums of Sequences
Students develop formulas for the sum of arithmetic and geometric sequences and then find the sum of sequences using the formulas developed.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sums-of-sequences
Perms and Combs?
Students will use built-in commands to evaluate factorials, combinations, and permutations.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/perms-and-combs
Order Pears
Students investigate ordered pairs by graphically exploring the coordinates of a point on a Cartesian plane and identifying characteristics of a point corresponding to the coordinate.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/order-pears
Who Needs Mixed Numbers?
Students divide and multiply mixed numbers and fractions in real-life examples relating to carpentry.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-needs-mixed-numbers
What’s Half of a Half of a Half?
Students will use a physical model to determine what happens when they repeatedly halve a piece of paper, and then they reassemble the pieces into a whole. They then use an algebraic model to analyze the same situation, which leads to an introductory discussion of limits.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-half-of-a-half-of-a-half
The Best Cell Phone Plan
Students will compare two cell phone plans and determine which plan is better for a specific situation. They will utilize both tables and graphs to make their decisions. Students need prior experience writing linear models for this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-best-cell-phone-plan
What Makes a Food Nutritional?
Students will analyze select nutritional values of specific food products and then compare those values to the recommended daily allowances published by the U.S.D.A. They will calculate percentages and fractions based upon the information they find.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-makes-a-food-nutritional
Let’s Count the Ways
Students will be introduced to the different ways to calculate numbers of outcomes, including using the counting principle. They will also evaluate expressions using permutations of data without repeat elements, both manually and on the TI-30XS MultiView™ calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lets-count-the-ways
