One- and Two-Variable Statistics--Review

In this activity, students will review the concepts that they have learned thus far in statistics. The first part of the activity includes one-variable topics such as graphing quantitative variables, calculating measures of central tendency and spread, and making comparisons. The second part incl...

Second Derivative Grapher

Visualize the relationship between the graph of a function and the graph of its second derivative.

Secant/Tangent Line Connection

Students will explore a real situation by minimizing the distance between two points on a secant line; ultimately making a connection to the slope of the tangent line and the difference quotient. Students will explore this graphically, numerically, and analytically. An extension at the end allo...

Solids of Revolution

Students will investigate 3D visualizations of volumes created by rotating a function about the x-or y-axis. They will understand the concept and reason for the volume formula in order to be prepared for generalizations. Students will solve the definite integral by hand using the fundamental theo...

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.

Trend or Noise?

This lesson involves investigating aspects of statistical information reported in the media or other venues, aspects that are often misunderstood by those unfamiliar with sampling.

How Many?

Students will explore Bernoulli probabilities. They will use them to calculate the probabilities of various single and cumulative events. They will also explore the Bernoulli probability distribution.

Family of t Curves

This lesson involves investigating how a t-distribution compares to a normal distribution.

Why Divide by n-1?

Students will investigate calculating a sample variance using both n and n-1 as the divisor for samples drawn with and without replacement.

What’s Normal, Anyway?

In this activity, students explore the normal distribution and several of its most interesting properties. First, they use a histogram of data from a binomial experiment to examine the general shape of a normal curve. Then, they use a dynamic illustration to make observations, using sliders to ch...

What’s My Model?

Students will investigate several different regression models and determine which of the models makes the most sense, based upon a real-world situation (cooling a cup of hot chocolate).
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-my-model

Type 2 Error

This activity allows students to experiment with different alpha levels and alternative hypotheses to investigate the relationship among types of error and power.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/type-2-error

Probability Distributions

Students will describe how the distribution of a random sample of outcomes provides information about the actual distribution of outcomes in a discrete sample space.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/probability-distributions_1

Population Mean: σ unknown

Students calculate confidence intervals to estimate the true population mean when the standard deviation of the population is not known.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/population-mean-σ-unknown

Re-Expressing Data

The students will learn to re-express data as a linear relationship even though the raw data does not fit a linear model. Students will learn important concepts involving data transformation and re-expression.

Comparing Linear and Exponential Functions

Compare data from two different scenarios -- linear and exponential growth.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/comparing-linear-and-exponential-functions_1

Computing with Mathematical Formulas

Evaluate formulas for given values of a variable.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/computing-with-mathematical-formulas

Catching the Rays

Students will fit a sinusoidal function to a set of data. The data are the number of hours of daylight starting January 1st and collected on the first and sixteenth days of the months in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada.

Multiplication & Division of Functions

Students will determine the resulting functions produced from the multiplication and division of two functions. They will explore the graphical representation of the resulting function and support their algebraic solution by determining if the graphs coincide. Additionally, students will evaluate...
