Science TODAY™ - Hurricane Damage
Students will construct a graph and a regression model which shows the relationship between wind speed and the force of the wind. The students will then analyze the math model that fits the data to make predictions from the model.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/science-today--hurricane-damage
Ecology Vocabulary
This StudyCards(tm) stack enables students to review the vocabulary used in studying ecology.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ecology-vocabulary
Science TODAY™ - Clearing the Bar
Students will explore the effects of two critical physical factors on potential success in the pole vault event in track and field.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/science-today--clearing-the-bar
Galileo Galilei Time Line
A time line of the life of Galileo Galilei.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/galileo-galilei-time-line
Hooke's Law
Students study Hooke's Law. They understand that stretch on a spring is directly proportional to the force applied to the end of the string. Students observe a spring being stretched as candies are added to a cup attached to the spring. They learn to graph scatter plots, analyze linear function, ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hookes-law
Energy Skate Park - PhET (HS)
TBDhttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/energy-skate-park--phet-hs
Exploring Motion Graphs
Students will create distance-time and velocity-time graphs with CBL2™ and motion detectors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-motion-graphs
Which Way?
Students' use a motion detector to examine how different types of motion affect the shape of the Distance versus Time plot. They explore how changes in direction and other factors affect the shape of the plot.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/which-way
Falling Down
In this activity, students' will determine the average speed of a falling object. They will observe whether or not changing the mass and keeping the same shape have an effect on the average speed of the object.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/falling-down
Vernier - Friction
Students study how the nature of two materials in contact, and the smoothness of their surfaces affect the magnitude of the sliding force of friction. They use a force sensor to measure frictional force for different surfaces.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/vernier--friction
Simulation of the Photoelectric Effect for the TI-83+/TI-84+ Graphing Calculator
The simulation generates photoelectrons into a retarding potential difference. Students can adjust the retarding potential so that the kinetic energy of the photoelectrons can be found. With this information and the wavelength of the photon that generated the photoelectron, Planck's constant ca...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/simulation-of-the-photoelectric-effect-for-the-ti83ti84-graphing-calculator
Problem-Solving Steps
Students learn the four steps of problem solving: Understanding the problem, making a plan, carrying out the plan, and evaluating the results. This activity helps students develop skills to solve problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/problemsolving-steps
Number and Operations - 100 or Bust
Students explore the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers and integers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-and-operations--100-or-bust
Silenced Songbirds
Students calculate the probable number of Golden-Cheeked Warblers present in a particular area. Students prepare a marked map, calculate the number of square miles in the marked area, and estimate the number of birds that live in the area.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/silenced-songbirds
What's the Plan?
Students investigate area with nonstandard and standard units of measure. They work to plan a unique vegetable garden and calculate the costs of plants for the garden.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-the-plan
Ratios in Regular Polygons
Students use linear measurement and calculators to investigate the ratios between corresponding parts of regular polygons.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/ratios-in-regular-polygons
Reading Picture Graphs
Students learn to read simple picture graphs with the help of a calculator.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/reading-picture-graphs
What's My Ratio?
Students use linear measurement and calculators to investigate proportionality and determine the constant ratio between similar figures.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-my-ratio
Spin Me Along
Students explore probability and patterns in fractions, decimals, and percents by spinning three spinners and recording and analyzing the results.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/spin-me-along
Swing Thing
In this activity, students will construct a pendulum and create a motion plot for a swinging pendulum. They will also identify characteristics that affect a pendulum's motion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/swing-thing
Transmission Lines
Describes how to calculate the characteristic impedance and phase velocity on transmission lines. Steady state transmission line behavior and simple matching concepts are included also. The functions reflcoef(), lineleng(), zin(), yin() and vswr() are created.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/transmission-lines
