NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Double Down" - A Bit of Basic Blackjack
In "Double Down," three students are tied up in a money-laundering scheme involving money won in the card game blackjack. In this activity, we discuss a simplified version of blackjack and analyze the probability of winning in various situations. Because cards are drawn from the deck and not re...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--double-down--a-bit-of-basic-blackjack
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Killer Chat" - Stylometry
In "Killer Chat," the FBI has obtained a collection of online chat dialogues from a suspected killer. Charlie proposes he use Statistical Linguistic Analysis to identify the author. The style and language can essentially fingerprint the writing. Stylometry, the practice of applying statistical an...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--killer-chat--stylometry
NUMB3RS - Season 2 - "Soft Target" - Are You Sure?
In "Soft Target," Charlie uses Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA), a multiple regression method, to predict the next terrorist attack. This method, like many others used to predict events, may use a tree diagram to visualize possibilities. The use of tree diagrams is seen in probability.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-2--soft-target--are-you-sure
Centers of a Triangle
The centroid, circumcenter, orthocenter, and incenter are the four classic centers of a triangle that are studied in geometry. In this activity, you will construct these center points and discover their properties.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/centers-of-a-triangle
Grandparents and Special Friends Day
This lesson was designed for our Grandparents and Special Friends day. It can be used for any visitation day, or an open house.

Biorhythms and Sinusoidal functions
In order to see an application of sinusoidal curves that has relevance to themselves students will compute their biorhythm information, find the sinusoidal function that fits the information and graph them on the graphing calculator. They will use this information to compute future "good" and "b...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/biorhythms-and-sinusoidal-functions
Lines, Models, CBR - Let's Tie Them Together (Electronic Format Only)
In this activity, students use a motion detector to collect "linear" motion data and examine the relationship between a physical action and a mathematical and/or graphic model of that action. The students will use the "eyeball" method to find the mathematical model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/lines-models-cbr--lets-tie-them-together-electronic-format-only
Finding a Line of Best Fit
Students make a scatter plot of heart rate versus age data and draw lines of best fit using three different methods - by hand, using the upper and lower quartiles, and using the handheld's regression feature.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/finding-a-line-of-best-fit
Using Matrices to Enter Data and Perform Operations
Students will select and use appropriate statistical methods to analyze data and understand meanings of operations and how they relate to one another.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/using-matrices-to-enter-data-and-perform-operations

Power Company
Students explore the limits on powers that can be displayed without scientific notation and look for patterns in the powers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/power-company
The Antics of Statistics
Students learn/review some of the different measures of statistics and see how to use those measures to analyze a data set. Students also participate in a discussion about how statistics can be used to achieve a variety of results.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-antics-of-statistics_1
