NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Toxin" - How Hard Can It Be?
In "Toxin," the FBI tracks a serial poisoner who uses contaminated drugs. In this activity, the FBI intercepted an encrypted message they believe contains a phone number that could lead to an "insider" who may be helping the poisoner. Don suggests using a computer to start trying to break the cod...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--toxin--how-hard-can-it-be
A Move in the Right Direction
Students physically provide motion data that is collected by a CBL™ and then graph the data. They determine if they "moved in the right directions" by comparing their graph with those printed in the activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/a-move-in-the-right-direction
Calculating the Area of a Triangle Using Heron's Formula
Students will measure the lengths of the sides of three different triangles and apply Heron's Formula to calculate the area in acres.

Students will calculate the area using their graphing calcul...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/calculating-the-area-of-a-triangle-using-herons-formula
Got an equilateral triangle? with Cabri Jr.
Using the Compass tool in Cabri Jr., students will construct an equilateral triangle, and check the length of each side. When a vertices is moved using the Alpha hand, the triangle remains equilateral.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/got-an-equilateral-triangle---with-cabri-jr
Midsegments of a Triangle
In this activity, students will construct midsegments of a triangle, and look to formulate statements that appear to be true about the construction. They will form a midsegment triangle and compare the properties of the triangles formed.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/midsegments-of-a-triangle
Biorhythms and Sinusoidal functions
In order to see an application of sinusoidal curves that has relevance to themselves students will compute their biorhythm information, find the sinusoidal function that fits the information and graph them on the graphing calculator. They will use this information to compute future "good" and "b...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/biorhythms-and-sinusoidal-functions
Introducing the Absolute Value Function
Students will examine data by comparing individual data points to the mean by finding the difference (positive or negative) and the distance from the mean.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/introducing-the-absolute-value-function
Arithmetic and Geometric means
This activity relates the concepts of the arithmetic and geometric means of two numbers. Students, with the aid of their TI calculators and TI-Navigator system, compute the arithmetic and geometric means for four different pairs of numbers. They send their results to the teacher's computer where ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/arithmetic-and-geometric-means
Trains in Motion
Students will make observations about the motion of two objects. They will compare and contrast this motion and consider how it corresponds to a graph representing distance as a function of time.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/trains-in-motion
Complex Numbers
Students calculate problems to determine the rules for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing complex numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/complex-numbers
Here’s Looking at Euclid
Students explore several ways to calculate the Greatest Common Divisor and Least Common Multiple, including using Euclid’s Algorithm.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/heres-looking-at-euclid_1
The Calcumites are Coming! - TI-83
Students model the growth of a population and compare ideal growth with a population whose growth is limited. They use technology to find exponential and logistic regression equations and use them to plot models.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-calcumites-are-coming--ti83
Exponent Game
Students compare powers and decide whether to add or subtract values to a cumulative total so that the total stays as close to zero as possible.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exponent-game
From a Distance...You Can See It!
Students find the distance between points using common fractions and decimals, with the concepts of midpoint and distance. They also learn to solve problems using the Pythagorean theorem.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/from-a-distance---you-can-see-it
Ratios of Similar Triangles
Students explore two ways of comparing side lengths of similar triangles. They will calculate ratios and change the triangles to see how the ratio changes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ratios-of-similar-triangles
Exploring Geometric Sequences
Students graphically analyze geometric series using graphs and consider the effect of the value for the common ratio and first term using sliders.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-geometric-sequences
Investigating the Derivatives of Some Common Functions
In this activity, students will investigate the derivatives of sine, cosine, natural log, and natural exponential functions by examining the symmetric difference quotient at many points. They develop the idea of the derivative as a function. They gather evidence toward some common derivative for...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/investigating-the-derivatives-of-some-common-functions
Exploring Geometric Sequences
Students explore geometric series by considering the effect of the value for the common ratio and first term using sliders.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-geometric-sequences_1
Polly, Want Some Division?
In this activity, students will use polynomial calculations to determine quotients and remainders when performing polynomial division using CAS commands. The Remainder Theorem is introduced and applied to identify roots or zeros and to determine function values. Graphs are incorporated to visuall...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polly-want-some-division
Operation Rules
In this short activity, students use interactive pages with sliders to determine rules for different combinations of adding and subtracting positive and negative numbers such as adding two negative numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/operation-rules
