Percentiles

The goal of this activity is for students to use the area to the left of a value in a normal distribution to find its percentile. The process will then be reversed to find the value for a given percentile.

Random Samples

Compare the results of the three estimation methods to show that random samples of rectangles provide estimates that, on average, are closer to the true population mean than the other two methods.

Resampling

This lesson involves approximate sampling distributions obtained from simulations based directly on a single sample. The focus of the lesson is on conducting hypothesis tests in situations for which the conditions of more traditional methods are not met.

Probability Simulations

Students use the random integer (randInt) command to simulate probability experiments. They also graph the number of trials and corresponding probabilities to observe the Law of Large Numbers. Simulated experiments involve tossing a coin, spinning a spinner, and observing the gender of children i...

Probability Distributions

Students list outcomes for probability experiments such as flipping a coin, rolling number cubes, and observing the sex of each child born in a family. They use these outcomes to record the values of random variables, such as number of tails, sum of the cubes, and number of boys. Students then cr...

Normal Probability Plot

This lesson involves creating a normal probability plot for several data sets involving height to examine the appearance of such plots when the distribution is approximately normal.

NASA - Spacewalk Training

In this activity, students will plot data, looks at patterns, and draw conclusions given a real-world context of astronauts training in the Neutral Buoyancy Laboratory (NBL) in Houston, TX.

NASA - Maintaining Bone Mineral Density

In this activity students perform an appropriate test to determine the answer to the question "Is using the iRED exercise method significantly better than using the treadmill and bicycle in maintaining bone density?"

Means With Confidence

Students estimate the true mean of a population when the standard deviation is known by finding the sample mean, margin of error and confidence interval.

Multiplicity of Zeros of Functions

Students will utilize graphs and equations of five polynomial functions to determine the zeros of the functions and whether the functions cross the x-axis at these zeros or just touch the x-axis at the zeros. Then students will determine the degree of the polynomial functions and the effect the d...

Multiplication & Division of Functions

Students will determine the resulting functions produced from the multiplication and division of two functions. They will explore the graphical representation of the resulting function and support their algebraic solution by determining if the graphs coincide. Additionally, students will evaluate...

Modeling Daylight Hours

Students are provided with data on the daylight hours for two Canadian cities measured three times per month in 2007. The student's task is to create graphical and algebraic models of the data and to interpret the meaning of each of the parameters in the algebraic models. The student will also ...

Make the Basket

Students will use parametric equations to model two physical situations: making a free throw (basketball) and hitting a home run (baseball). Students will begin exploring the models by using sliders to change to the angle and velocity of the shot or hit. They will then move the time slider to see...

Investigation into the Sine Function

This activity leads the students through an investigation into the zeroes, domain and range of the sine graph. It continues investigating the transformations of the sine graph thus leading to the sinusoidal graph.

Linear Equation Games: Activity #7 Blackblobs

This is the Nspire version of the old DOS program 'Green Globs'. Students are given random points in which to find their own equations. The more points they go through with one line, the better their score.
