Steppin' Out
Students will use the Data/Graphs Wizard tool to graph data and determine a line that best fits your data and use the Data/Graphs Wizard tool to identify the relationship between stride length and height.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/steppin-out
The 1 Cent Event
In this activity, students will collect data on a 1 cent coin as it falls under its own volition after being placed on its edge 25 times. They will report their data to the class and enter the data into their TI-84 Plus. They will examine the data from the collective and discuss patterns revealed...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/the-1-cent-event
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Take Out" - Restaurant Ranking
In "Take Out", a series of restaurant invasions turn deadly. The FBI asks Charlie to help, so he develops a predictive model to try to identify the next restaurant that will be targeted. He says that 'it's a way of investigating a group of things -- in this case, restaurants -- and identifying th...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--take-out--restaurant-ranking
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Take Out" - No Fly Zone
In "Take Out", a series of restaurant robberies prompts the FBI to ask Charlie to help predict the restaurant most likely to be targeted next. Charlie says that it can be thought of like a spider catching its prey in a web. Even the best constructed web can not catch all insects. There exist regi...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--take-out--no-fly-zone
In the Range
Students will interpret the rounding involved in measuring to identify the possible range of a given measurement.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/in-the-range
Electromagnetics
Describes how to use the TI-89 to solve Laplace's equation for two-dimensional electrostatic problems. The separation of variables method provides exact solutions but is restricted to specific geometries. The relaxation method is applicable to any geometry, but it provides only an approximate s...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/electromagnetics
Map It!
Students explore map making. Students read a story, identify the locations of different places in the story, decide the distance between each set of places in the story, and create a map with a legend.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/map-it
Confidence Intervals
Students understand the confidence intervals for a proportion and for a mean. They also examine the confidence intervals for the difference between two means, and for the difference between two proportions.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/confidence-intervals
Tests of Significance
Students understand how tests of significance can be performed with confidence intervals. They use a simulation to clarify the meaning of a hypothesis. Students examine large sample tests for a proportion, mean, difference between two proportions, and difference between two means. They also study...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/tests-of-significance
Special Cases of Normally Distributed Data
Students perform single and two-sample t procedures to investigate special cases of normally distributed data. They explore inference for a least-square regression line, including the confidence interval.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/special-cases-of-normally-distributed-data
Creating Word Problems
Students write word problems based on the whole numbers generated by the calculator. They decide on an operation to solve the problems. Finally, they analyze the problems to determine the problem characteristics when using operations on whole numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/creating-word-problems
Number and Operation Sense: Rational Numbers
Students learn to use the calculator to collect a set of data in order to identify patterns that illustrate important rational number concepts: the relationship between rational numbers and division, and equivalent fraction and decimal forms for rational numbers.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/number-and-operation-sense-rational-numbers
Pizza Extravaganza
Students will conduct a survey of the class to determine favorite pizza toppings. They use this sample information to predict the preferred toppings for the school and use the TI-15 to help them with the calculations to plan a school-wide pizza party.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/pizza-extravaganza
Homestead-Miami Chase Activity
In this activity, students will investigate whether it is better to take the shortest path or the fastest path.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/homesteadmiami-chase-activity
Conics & Parametrics 1
This activity is a LearningCheck™ to quickly assess students' ability to identify conics from their equations in both rectangular and parametric form.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/conics--parametrics-1
Who Needs Mixed Numbers?
Students divide and multiply mixed numbers and fractions in real-life examples relating to carpentry.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/who-needs-mixed-numbers_1
Can Pythagoras Swim?
Students will investigate relationships between sides of right triangles to understand the Pythagorean theorem and then use it to solve problems. Students will simplify expressions using radicals and exponents in this activity.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/can-pythagoras-swim
