Nuclear Binding Energy
Students explore the energy that results from the strong force in nuclei. The activity begins with the unexpected result that the mass of a nucleus is less than the sum of the masses of the protons and neutrons in the nucleus. In Part 2 of the activity, students analyze a graph to determine the r...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nuclear-binding-energy
Nspired Crossword NC

Polarization of Light
Students use data collected during a lab to explore the relationship between polarized light and light intensity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/polarization-of-light
Graphs of Antiderivatives
Students use their TI-Nspire to graph the anti-derivative of a function and investigate aspects of the this function and how it relates to the primitive function. For example, if a continuous derivative function changes from negative to positive, what does this produce on the primi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/graphs-of-antiderivatives
Cell Structure & Function
In this lesson, students will use cell model diagrams to interact with both animal and plant cells and explore the structure and function of the organelles.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/cell-structure--function
Light and Waves
Students explore the interference patterns of waves formed by two point sources. Students are able to collect data and draw conclusions about the nodal lines formed by the interference.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-and-waves
Light Intensity
Students investigate the relationship between light intensity and distance with a flashlight. They use the collected data to identify a mathematical model for the relationship. They then compare this model with the inverse-square law for an ideal point source.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/light-intensity
Blood Pressure
In this lesson, students will assess blood pressure under changing conditions and make conclusions about the data they have collected.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/blood-pressure
