Logarithmic Transformations of Data
This lesson involves three real-world data sets in which the relationship between each pair of variables is non-linear. Students will be asked to describe the original relationship between each pair of variables, and observe how each transformation is used to achieve a linear relationship.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/logarithmic-transformations-of-data
Sinusoidal Modeling
This lesson involves writing an equation to predict the average monthly temperature for a certain location based on past data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sinusoidal-modeling
Reflective Property of Conics
This lesson involves investigating the properties of basic reflective principles of conics.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reflective-property-of-conics
Nonlinear Systems of Equations
Students will be introduced to nonlinear systems of equations. It begins by allowing students to move figures around the screen to see ways certain types of graphs (linear/conic and conic/conic) can intersect each other and how many possible intersection points are possible. The activity conclude...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nonlinear-systems-of-equations
Ride the Rollercoaster
Students use polynomial regression to develop and assess the fit of equations modeling data. The equation models are then evaluated for reasonableness in their use for extrapolating beyond the given data sets.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ride-the-rollercoaster
Cryptology and Matrices
This lesson involves using matrices to encode and decode a message.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cryptology-and-matrices
Reduce It!
Students write augmented matrices for systems of equations and then solve the system by writing the augmented matrix in reduced row-echelon form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reduce-it
Discriminating Against the Zero
Students explore when a graph has two zeros, one zero, and no real zeros. They will also determine when a graph has real, rational, irrational, or imaginary roots.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/discriminating-against-the-zero_84
How Do Your Errors Grow!
A simple measuring activity allows students to explore the sometimes difficult concept of significant figures, both manually and with the help of the Science Tools App's Sig-Fig Calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-do-your-errors-grow
Triangle Inequalities
In this activity, students will discover the Triangle Inequality Theorem and explore the possible lengths of the third side of a triangle given the other two side lengths. Students will also classify the type of triangle as acute, obtuse, or right using the Pythagorean inequalities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/triangle-inequalities

Taylor Polynomials
Students learn to define a Taylor polynomial approximation to a function f of degree n about a point x = a. They also learn to graph convergence of Taylor polynomials. They use Taylor polynomials to approximate function values.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/taylor-polynomials_1
Derivative Analysis
Associate the verbal language of function behavior with characteristics of the graph of the function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/derivative-analysis
Density Curves
Students will be introduced to density curves as a simple analysis of a data set. They also will investigate where the median and mean lie on symmetric or skewed graphs.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/density-curves_1
