Secret codes are so much fun, and a great way to practice nearly any math skill. Let your class become code breakers as they investigate inverse matrices. They use TI-Nspire technology to solve systems of equations which help them crack...

Knowledge of statistics and probability can increase your advantage when playing games. The activity asks learners to analyze the game of MasterMind to determine the number of possible codes. They also examine different variations of the...

High schoolers solve matrices by multiplication. In this algebra lesson, students create coded messages and relate it to solving matrices. They multiply and find the inverse of matrices.

Investigate how public key cryptography works. Scholars continue their study of one-way functions and asymmetric keys and apply this information to public key cryptography. They use an app to explore public key cryptography and its...

Learners perform operations with matrices. In this algebra lesson, students use cryptography and cryptanalysis to solve problems. They add, subtract, and multiply matrices.

Young scholars rewrite word problems using expressions and equations. In this algebra lesson, students use the correct variable to solve and write equations. They use the TI to graph their solution.

Learners are introduced to the concept of variables and their uses. In groups, they are given a code in which they must find the value of the missing words. To end the lesson, they find the value of words over ten letters long and their...

Students recognize patterns and sequences in numbers. For this geometry lesson, students create rules to define the sequences and patterns they obsere. They translate coded messages as they dicuss navigational terms.
