Riemann Rectangle Errors

Use three Riemann sums used to estimate the area of a plane region.

Linear Inequalities

Students first look at tables of values to see that inequalities are true for some values of the variable and not for others. They then graph simple inequalities, comparing the handheld output with graphs they create on paper. The last two problems have students solve one-step linear inequalities...

Relating Rates - IB

Students are given a situation of water draining out of a cylindrical tank in order to explain the process of solving related rates questions.

Center of Mass

Students will identify and interpret the mean geometrically as the location of the coins on the ruler such that the sum of the distances on either side of the mean is the same.

Center and Spread

Students will recognize that the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) are two ways to measure center and spread.

Mean Value Theorem

Calculate slopes of secant lines, create tangent lines with the same slope, and note observations about the functions and slopes.

Candy Pieces

Students will be introduce to hypothesis testing. Students are given the number of pieces by color in a bag of candy. They are asked if they think the bag could have come from a manufacturing process designed to produce equal proportions of each color. They will then use a chi-square test for goo...

Chi-Square Distributions

Students compare the Chi-Square distribution to the standard normal distribution and determine how the Chi-Square distribution changes as they increase the degrees of freedom.

Comparing Prices

Students will compare average U.S. gasoline prices per gallon for two years. Then they will use the mean and standard deviation (SD) and the median and interquartile range (IQR) to measure the center and spread of price data.

Maximums, Minimums, and Zeroes

Determine when a function has a maximum or minimum based on the derivative of the function.

Comparing Two Means

In this activity, students will test hypotheses concerning means of two populations. They calculate the test statistic and the critical values and then graph the critical region and plot the value of the test statistic.

MacLaurin Polynomials

Students will use TI-Nspire technology to explore MacLaurin polynomials. They will develop polynomials that approximate very special functions.

Confidence Levels for Proportions

This activity involves generating a confidence interval for a population proportion from a random sample of size 100 and considering how certain one can be that this interval contains the actual population proportion.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-levels-for-proportions

Confidence Levels for Means

Students will interpret a confidence level as the average success rate of the process used to produce an interval intended to contain the true mean of the population. Students will recognize that as the confidence level increases, on average, the confidence interval increases in width.

Local Linearity

Visualize the idea of derivative as local slope.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/local-linearity

Confidence Levels

Students will interpret a confidence level as the average success rate of the process used to produce an interval intended to contain the true mean of the population. They will recognize that as the confidence level increases, on average, the confidence interval increases in width.

Confidence Intervals for Proportions

This lesson involves the concept of confidence intervals as a tool to make statements about a population proportion based on a given sample.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-intervals-for-proportions_1

Confidence Intervals for Means

This activity investigates generating a confidence interval for the mean of a random sample of size 100 from an unknown population.

Confidence Intervals for 2 Sample Proportions

Do senior citizens and college students have different memories about high school? The activity Confidence Intervals: 2-Sample Proportions involves investigating random samples from two populations from a large Midwestern city with respect to the question: "When you were in high school, did you h...

Conditional Probability

This lesson involves thinking about probability when additional information is given.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conditional-probability

Properties of Logarithms

Logarithms are just another way of writing exponents. Just like exponents, logarithms have properties that allow you to simplify expressions and solve equations. In this activity, students Will discover some of these properties by graphing and confirm them with algebra.

Natural Logarithm

Construct the graph of the natural logarithm function from its definition.
https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/natural-logarithm

Cancer Clusters

Students will investigate cancer incidence rates in a number of states. Hypothesis testing is introduced and used along with a two-proportion z-test to compare cancer rates. This activity helps students to determine when a difference in data is actually statistically significant. This should enco...

Stretching the Quads

In this activity, students will stretch and translate the parabola given by y = x2 and determine the effects on the equation. Students will also explore finding the vertex and zeros of a parabola and relate them to the equation.
