F Distribution
Students study the characteristics of the F distribution and discuss why the distribution is not symmetric (skewed right) and only has positive values. Students then use the Fcdf command to find probabilities and to confirm percentiles. They move on to find critical values and then compute a conf...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/f-distribution_1
Slope - Confidence Interval and Hypothesis Test
This lesson involves investigating the confidence interval and hypothesis test for the slope of a regression line.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/slope--confidence-interval-and-hypothesis-test
Sampling
Students learn about each of the four types of random sampling methods and use the randInt command to find each kind of sample from a given population.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sampling_1
Testing Claims About Proportions
Students find z-scores and critical values to test claims about proportions. To verify the results, they find P-values by either finding the area under the curve with the Integral tool, or by using the 1-Prop z Test command.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/testing-claims-about-proportions_1
Z-Scores
This lesson involves finding the area under the standard normal curve with mean 0 and standard deviation 1 for a given distance from the mean and compare this to the area under the curve for another member of the family of normal curves.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/zscores
Square it Up!
Students investigate the method of least squares by adding the squares to a scatter plot and moving a line to find the minimum sum. Then they compare their line to the built-in linear regression model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/square-it-up
Linear Inequalities
Students first look at tables of values to see that inequalities are true for some values of the variable and not for others. They then graph simple inequalities, comparing the handheld output with graphs they create on paper. The last two problems have students solve one-step linear inequalities...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linear-inequalities
Candy Pieces
Students will be introduce to hypothesis testing. Students are given the number of pieces by color in a bag of candy. They are asked if they think the bag could have come from a manufacturing process designed to produce equal proportions of each color. They will then use a chi-square test for goo...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/candy-pieces_1
Chi-Square Distributions
Students compare the Chi-Square distribution to the standard normal distribution and determine how the Chi-Square distribution changes as they increase the degrees of freedom.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/chisquare-distributions_1
Comparing Prices
Students will compare average U.S. gasoline prices per gallon for two years. Then they will use the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) to measure the center and spread of price data.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-prices
Confidence Levels for Means
Students will interpret a confidence level as the average success rate of the process used to produce an interval intended to contain the true mean of the population. Students will recognize that as the confidence level increases, on average, the confidence interval increases in width.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-levels-for-means
Confidence Intervals for Proportions
This lesson involves the concept of confidence intervals as a tool to make statements about a population proportion based on a given sample.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-intervals-for-proportions_1
Confidence Intervals for Means
This activity investigates generating a confidence interval for the mean of a random sample of size 100 from an unknown population.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-intervals-for-means_1
NASA:Taking a Walk in the Neuroscience Laboratories
Within the Neuroscience Laboratories, many different functions are tested. For example, researchers in the Motion Laboratory focus on the post-flight disturbances in balance and gait control—areas with which many astronauts struggle. This laboratory develops training programs that will faci...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nasa--taking-a-walk
Move Those Chains
In this activity, students will explore the Chain Rule. Students are asked to make a conjecture of the derivative of f(x) = (2x + 1)2 based on the Power Rule. They are then asked to graph their derivative function and compare it to the graph of f´(x). They will then examine "true" statements abou...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/move-those-chains
Are They Truly Random?
Students will develop lists of random numbers generated by the TI-Nspire handheld.
