Box Plots Introduction
.... Students will move data within a dot plot and observe the changes within the corresponding box plot and identify particular actions that most directly affect the five-number summary. As a result, students will develop the reasoning skills to recognize properties of a distribution from its box ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/box-plots-introduction
The Classic Box Problem - Calculus
The Box_Problem_Calculus.tns document takes a classic problem from calculus and uses the dynamic linking capabilities of TI-Nspire to enact the problem in multiple representations: diagramatic, graphic, numeric, geometric, and symbolic. The problem is posed on the title screen shown at the right.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-classic-box-problem--calculus
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.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/influence-and-outliers
Resampling
This lesson involves approximate sampling distributions obtained from simulations based directly on a single sample. The focus of the lesson is on conducting hypothesis tests in situations for which the conditions of more traditional methods are not met.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/resampling
Simple Calculator Tips for Algebra 2 | Texas Instruments
...evious answer in the new mode — no need to retype everything! Bonus tip: You can be in either mode and still calculate in degrees or radians. For example, if I’m in radian mode but want to calculate the cosine of 49 degrees, I don’t have to switch modes! This is helpful when most of your calcu...https://education.ti.com/en/bulletinboard/2024/simple-easy-calculator-tips-algebra2-concepts
Off to the Races
In this activity, students set weights for factors and observe how it affects the probability of a particular outcome. They set a weight for 3 factors for each of the six horses in a race. The three factors are weighted differently in different parts of the race. They compare the experimental and...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/off-to-the-races
How Random!
Students use simulations and graphs to explore the common sense notion that repeatedly flipping a coin results in "heads up" about half of the time. First, they simulate an experiment by representing single coin flips with random numbers. Next, they use a given formula to simulate multiple coin f...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-random_1
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Take Out" - Outliers
In "Take Out," Amita and Charlie help the FBI track financial transfers from the US to Mexico . There are so many transfers that it is difficult to find the specific transfer. Charlie explains that it is 'a matter of using a target-specific optimization model. Something called Outlier Detection.'...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--take-out--outliers
Taxicab Geometry
Students begin a study of taxicab geometry by discovering the taxicab distance formula. They then use the definition of radius to draw a taxicab circle and make comparisons between a circle in Euclidean geometry and a circle in taxicab geometry. Lastly, they construct taxicab perpendicular bisect...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/taxicab-geometry_1
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Hardball" - Is It for Real
In "Hardball," an amateur mathematician uncovers an equation that uses baseball statistics to identify which players are using performance enhancing substances. By analyzing player performance, he is able to determine when an athlete began using a performance enhancing substance. Students will us...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--hardball--is-it-for-real
NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Mind Games" - Right or Wrong
In "Mind Games," a psychic shocks Charlie by incorrectly guessing the color (black or red) of 25 cards in a row. As Larry says, "the probability of getting them all wrong is the same as getting them all right." This activity applies the binomial theorem to the probability of correctly guessing a ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--mind-games--right-or-wrong
Points, Lines and Slopes (Oh My!) - 84
In this activity students will explore the relationship between coordinates of points and locations on the coordinate plane, the relationships of lines with their equations, slopes and y-intercepts, and lastly, the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/points-lines--slopes-oh-my@84@ib
Stretching a Penny
In this activity, students investigate how a spring stretches when different weights pull on it. They relate the stretch of the spring directly to the weight and vice-versa.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stretching-a-penny
Here's Looking At Euclid
Students first use the familiar prime factorization method to calculate the GCD and LCM of two numbers. Second, they apply Euclid’s algorithm, an iterative process for finding the GCD, in conjunction with a formula for the LCM given the GCD. In order to use the algorithm, they must first grasp th...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/heres-looking-at-euclid
