Manipulating Lab Data: The Diode
Introduces the Shockley diode equation, which gives the voltage-current characteristics of a diode. The equation is plotted and compared to actual diode data taken in a laboratory. The method of importing data to the TI-89 is shown, followed by instructions on how to manipulate the data to prep...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/manipulating-lab-data--the-diode
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...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/laplace-analysis--the-sdomain
Graphs and Fractions
Have students draw squares on graph paper and half some of the squares on the outside. Number all the squares and continue numbering with the halfs. Students are then instructed to create their own ratios such as: 4 halves to eight wholes of odd numbers etc. Encourage student's to be creative by ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-and-fractions
Mean As a Fair Share
This lesson introduces students to mean as a way to describe the center of a set of data. Often called the average, the mean can also be visualized as “leveling out” the data in the sense of “fair share”.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/mean-as-a-fair-share-bc
Describing Categorical Data - Advanced Placement
Students categorize data using tables and bar charts. They also determine relative frequencies.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/describing-categorical-data--advanced-placement
What's the Trig?
Students will be introduced to right triangle trigonometry. They will use the TI-89 and Geometer's Sketchpad to construct a right triangle and calculate sin, cosine, and tangent of various acute angles. (Topic - Right Triangle Trigonometry)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-trig
Conics in Geometry
This lesson has students construct 3 conic sections through geometric definitions. Using the CABRI™ Geometry II application for the TI-89, students construct a parabola, an ellipse, and a hyperbola. (Topics - geometric shapes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conics-in-geometry
Exploring the Unit Circle
In this activity, students explore the properties of a unit circle and its mapping functions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-the-unit-circle
Volumes of Rectangular Prisms
This lesson will introduce students to many of the algebraic graphing features of the TI-89 calculator, especially the Maximum command. This will be accomplished by solving volumes of right rectangular prisms. (Algebra / geometry activity)https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/volumes-of-rectangular-prisms
Can Pythagoras Swim?
Students will investigate relationships between sides of right triangles to understand the Pythagorean theorem and then use it to solve problems. Students will simplify expressions using radicals and exponents in this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-pythagoras-swim
Prehistoric Parabola Match
This activity center is used as a formative assessment after a full unit on the different transformations of vertical parabolas.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/prehistoric-parabola-match
Let's Count the Ways
Students will be introduced to the different ways to calculate numbers of outcomes, including using the counting principle. They will also evaluate expressions using permutations of data without repeat elements, both manually and on the TI-34 MultiView™ calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lets-count-the-ways_1
