Car Sales
In this activity, students' will create a box and whisker plot using a list. The list will be sent using TI-Navigator™ and contains the number of car sales since 1970. They will determine the values in the box plot and answer some additional questions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/car-sales
Collecting Pens (Continued)
In this activity, students learn how to instruct the calculator to collect and organize the results from several trials of a simulation designed to find out how many boxes of cereals a customer would have to buy to collect all six color pens. Students enter a prewritten program, analyze the resul...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/collecting-pens-continued
Describing One-Variable Data
Students sort data and display it graphically using various plots. They also get familiarized with statistical concepts like measures of spread and central tendency.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/describing-onevariable-data
