Logarithmic Transformations of Data
This lesson involves three real-world data sets in which the relationship between each pair of variables is non-linear. Students will be asked to describe the original relationship between each pair of variables, and observe how each transformation is used to achieve a linear relationship.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/logarithmic-transformations-of-data
Real World Math Made Easy: Tic Toc Lab
This activity has been modified for Nspire with the data entered into the file.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/real-world-math-made-easy-tic-toc-lab
Nonlinear Systems of Equations
Students will be introduced to nonlinear systems of equations. It begins by allowing students to move figures around the screen to see ways certain types of graphs (linear/conic and conic/conic) can intersect each other and how many possible intersection points are possible. The activity conclude...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/nonlinear-systems-of-equations
Ride the Rollercoaster
Students use polynomial regression to develop and assess the fit of equations modeling data. The equation models are then evaluated for reasonableness in their use for extrapolating beyond the given data sets.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ride-the-rollercoaster
Properties of an Ellipse
Students discover properties of an ellipse, such as the set of all points such that the sum of the distances from these points to two fixed points is constant.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/properties-of-an-ellipse_1
Very Interesting
Students explore interest related to consumer loans, credit, and savings accounts.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/very-interesting
Exploring Linear Equations
Students will enter "life expectancy" data into lists and set up scatter plots and trace the scatter plot to select two points. Secondly, they will use the points to calculate slope and write a linear equation. Finally, they will use the Transformation Graphing App to fit the data using a linea...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-linear-equations_2
Operation Rules
In this short activity, students use interactive pages with sliders to determine rules for different combinations of adding and subtracting positive and negative numbers such as adding two negative numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/operation-rules
Conics In Winter
Students explore conic graphing using a polar notation equation and determine the effects the various variables on the graph.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conics-in-winter
Exploring Pi with the TI-Nspire
We've all done the lesson where you use a string to compare the measurements of the circumference and the diameter of a circle. Students can now explore that same activity on the TI-Nspire.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-pi-with-the-tinspire
Integers: Integer Builder
Drag positive and negative unit squares onto the stage and build integer additions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/integers-integer-builder
Periodic Table App
This App provides students with a graphical representation of the elements of the Periodic Table. Information includes 15 properties and facts about the 109 known elements. Students get to explore graphs of the periodic nature of the elements.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/periodic-table-app
How Do Your Errors Grow!
A simple measuring activity allows students to explore the sometimes difficult concept of significant figures, both manually and with the help of the Science Tools App's Sig-Fig Calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/how-do-your-errors-grow
Adding and Subtracting Fractions with Common Denominators
This activity uses interactive number lines to investigate addition and subtraction of fractions that refer to the same whole, with like denominators. Students may reason about the process as 1) decomposing each fraction into unit fractions and counting the total number of unit fractions that wou...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/adding-and-subtracting-fractions-with-common-denominators
Segments in Circles
