Examining Patterens in a Table, Function Rule, and Graphs

In this activity, students will identify characteristics of proportional and non-proportional linear relationships by examining patterns in a table, function rules, and a graph. Students will distinguish between proportional and non-proportional relationships by comparing patterns in table, funct...

Equations from Unit Rates

This lesson involves finding a linear equation and confirming the equation represents a proportional relationship with numeric values in ordered pairs or in functions tables.

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...

Exploring the Normal Curve Family

Students will investigate the relationship of the equation of a normal curve to its graph. They will use a slider to change the values of two parameters, m and s, to investigate their effects on the normal curve, noting in particular that m represents the location of the mean and that s represent...

The German Tank Problem

Students will develop an understanding of sampling distributions by exploring the methods used to estimate the number of German tanks in existence during WWII

Solve Me - One and Two-Step Inequalities

Students will use the TI-Nspire CAS to check their steps used to solve one and two-step inequalities. They will also use the solve feature to verify that they have the correct solution at the end of each problem. While solving inequalities, many students make careless mistakes with simplifying...

SD: Measure of Spread

This lesson is intended as an introductory activity to the concept of standard deviation.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/sd--measure-of-spread

SD: How Far is Typical?

This lesson involves gaining a basic understanding of what standard deviation is measuring by examining the location of data around the mean.
