My Angle on Cooling: Effects of Distance and Inclination
Learners discuss what heat is and how it travels. They discover that one way to cool an object in the presence of a heat source is to increase the distance from it or change the angle at which it is faced.

Angles and Arcs
Students identify the relationship between angles and arcs. In this geometry lesson, students rotate and move the circle around to create different arcs on the TI-Navigator. They differentiate between major and minor arcs.
Curated OER
Angles and Similarity
High schoolers identify triangles as similar or congruent. In this geometry lesson, students drag triangles around on the navigator to see the effect of different angles on the shape of the triangle. They discuss angle similarity and...
