Laplace Analysis: The s-domain

Demonstrates the utility of symbolic algebra by using the Laplace transform to solve a second-order circuit. The method requires that the circuit be converted from the time-domain to the s-domain and then solved for V(s). The voltage, v(t), of a sourceless, parallel, RLC circuit with initial co...

How do You Measure Up? (with the TI-10)

Students measure weight, height, and length with the help of a balance, scales, rulers, yardstick, and tape measures. They use their TI-10 to find proportions and to round off answers to whole numbers.

Hat Trick

Students learn to solve a real-world problem in economics. Students get to understand how surveys often use a sample of people rather than all of the people involved. They also learn how to make decisions based on the results of a sample survey.

Confidence Intervals

Students understand the confidence intervals for a proportion and for a mean. They also examine the confidence intervals for the difference between two means, and for the difference between two proportions.

Tests of Significance

Students understand how tests of significance can be performed with confidence intervals. They use a simulation to clarify the meaning of a hypothesis. Students examine large sample tests for a proportion, mean, difference between two proportions, and difference between two means. They also study...

Stepping Stones

Students use volume formulas and proportional reasoning to calculate the amount of concrete needed to make stepping stones of a specific size.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/stepping-stones

Creating Word Problems

Students write word problems based on the whole numbers generated by the calculator. They decide on an operation to solve the problems. Finally, they  analyze the problems to determine the problem characteristics when using operations on whole numbers.
