The 1 Cent Event
In this activity, students will collect data on a 1 cent coin as it falls under its own volition after being placed on its edge 25 times. They will report their data to the class and enter the data into their TI-84 Plus. They will examine the data from the collective and discuss patterns revealed...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-1-cent-event
An Average Lunch?
Students explore the meaning of the average (mean) value for a set of data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/an-average-lunch
Under Pressure
Students will conduct an experiment to determine the pressure applied to various objects.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/under-pressure
Convolution
Shows the convolution of two functions. To simplify the details, the functions are finite, piecewise, and continous.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/convolution
Mean Machine
Students construct a function machine from a small box. Students use the calculator to discover functions. They create their own one-step and two-step function rules and turn their calculators into a function machine.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mean-machine
Antennas
Describes how to perform basic antenna and radiation calculations with the TI-89. Antenna patterns, radiation resistance, radiation integrals, and phased array patterns are included.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/antennas
Let Me Count the Ways
Students will make predictions about the number of ways to make eleven with two or more addends. They will investigate patterns with these addends with the help of manipulatives and the calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/let-me-count-the-ways
Data Analysis and Probability
Students explore the basics in data analysis and probability.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/data-analysis-and-probability
Amazing Appetites
Students learn to count and solve original word problems. They learn to add by combining sets and subtract when removing the set. They use manipulatives to reflect the reasoning used in problem solving.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/amazing-appetites
Vectors
Describes how to use the TI-89 for coordinate system transformations, vector algebra, and vector component transformations. The functions rec2cyl(), cyl2rec(), rec2sph(), and sph2rec() are created in this chapter for vector component transformations and are used in Chapters 10 and 11.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vectors
Who's in the House
Students construct a model of a house, drawing pictures of the people and pets in the house. Students use skip counting strategies to find possible combinations of people and pets that live in their classmates houses with the help of pictures and TI-10.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whos-in-the-house
Measurement and Geometry
Students explore the use of manipulatives to conduct simple geometry and measurement activities.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/measurement-and-geometry
Financial Calculations
Describes how to use the TI-89 to calculate interest, present worth, loan repayments and so forth. These methods utilize the time-value-of-money.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/financial-calculations
Manipulating Lab Data: The Diode
Introduces the Shockley diode equation, which gives the voltage-current characteristics of a diode. The equation is plotted and compared to actual diode data taken in a laboratory. The method of importing data to the TI-89 is shown, followed by instructions on how to manipulate the data to prep...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/manipulating-lab-data--the-diode
Proportional Flag
Students will use the concepts of similarity to create a scale drawing of the national flag, that is large enough to cover most of a football field.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/proportional-flag
Fractions and Skittles
Students will predict how many of each color will be in one pack of skittles before they open the package. Once they open the package, they will determine how close their predictioins are to the actual amount. Students then will come up with ratios and averages.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/fractions-and-skittles
Set Design
Students will use similarity concepts, and the dimensions of the carvings on Mt. Rushmore to create a proportional representation of the carvings for a stage backdrop.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/set-design
Finding the area of a perfect polygon.
To find the area of a "regular polygon."https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-the-area-of-a-perfect-polygon
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_1
Building Expressions
In this lesson students view expressions as objects in their own right and interpret the form and structure of an algebraic expression. Students focus on comparing expressions and establish a foundation for the definition of equivalent expressions. Students also consider how to verify that expres...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/building-expressions-bc
What's So Special About 11?
Students will compute multiples of numbers in search of patterns. As a class, they'll discover patterns in multiples of 9; then they'll do the same with patterns in multiples of 11. They will then practice writing the rule for 11, both verbally and algebraically, to summarize the discovered patte...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-so-special-about-11
Can Pythagoras Swim?
Students will investigate relationships between sides of right triangles to understand the Pythagorean theorem and then use it to solve problems. Students will simplify expressions using radicals and exponents in this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-pythagoras-swim
