Experimentally Calculating Pi
Because the diameter of a circle is related to the circumference of a circle, we can find this constant relationship by measuring several lids and fitting a regression line to the data. The slope of this line is pi. This is a great activity to allow students to discover that Pi is the relations...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/experimentally-calculating-pi
NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Finders Keepers" - The Leaf Drops
In "Finders Keepers," a world-class racing yacht sinks in the ocean. The NSA has the exact location where its homing beacon shut down and assumes that is where the ship sank. The NSA is stumped when they cannot find the yacht at this location because they assumed the boat sank directly to the bot...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--finders-keepers--the-leaf-drops

NUMB3RS - Season 3 - "Democracy" - No Desk Left Behind
In "Democracy", Charlie calculates the likelihood that five people who knew each other would have died by accident in a two-week period. He estimates that the odds of this are 700 million to 1. To estimate likelihood of an event, a simulation can be used. In this activity, students use a simulati...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/numb3rs--season-3--democracy--no-desk-left-behind

What Is Your Grade (Part 2)
In this activity, students use the CellSheet Application to determine the missing value in a weighted mean. They use the application to write a formula to find the weighted mean and also learn to use the copy and paste features.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-your-grade-part-2
What Is Your Grade (Part 1)
In this activity, students will use the CellSheet Application and set up a spreadsheet. They will determine the mean of a set of values and find a minimum value to be added to a set of values to obtain a given mean.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/what-is-your-grade-part-1
