Forensics Case 12 - Hit and Run: Using information from an event data recorder to reconstruct an ac

Students learn how distance traveled, velocity, and acceleration are related to one another and how the appearance of an acceleration, velocity, or distance vs. time graph can be used to predict the appearance of the other graphs. They show how accident scenes can be recreated through an analysis...

The Pythagorean Theorem—and More

Students construct a triangle and find all angle and side measures. They practice dragging the vertices to form certain types of triangles, and then they confirm the Pythagorean Theorem for right triangles. Moreover, they discover the types of triangle that occur when c2 a2 + b2 or when c2 > a2 +...

Supertall Skyscrapers

In this activity, students use their handhelds to measure scale drawings of famous “supertall” skyscrapers. They first check that the Sears Tower is drawn to scale and then use their measurements to calculate that scale. Next, they write and solve proportions to find the heights of other skyscrap...

Pi and Precision

Students will collect the measurements of circumference and diameter for four objects in their group. (Cup, Can, Mint Candy, and a Coin) They will then investigate the accuracy of their data colletion using a numerical table and a scatter plot. Students must observe how closely their measurements...

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.

Binomial Experiments

Students use the multiplication rule for independent events to find the probability of the first success in the nth trial. Students use their results to derive and test a general formula. Then, students expand on this foundation to derive and test a rule for the probability of x successes in n tr...

NASA - Rendezvous For Two

When the space shuttle launches from NASA Kennedy Space Center, it must launch within a certain time frame (called a launch window) in order to successfully dock with the ISS. Launch windows are calculated so that the space shuttle will reach an orbit that is slightly lower than the ISS, but in t...
