Texas Instruments: Identifying Qualitative Graphs

Those graphing calculators can be tricky; good thing Texas Instruments has devised a lesson plan on how to use their TI-Nspire calculator to graph functions. Kids investigate functional notation as they graph ordered pairs in the form...

Students will identify different types of correlations graphically and by using the linear regression analysis obtained from a TI-84 Plus calculator. Students will also obtain and know the significance of a correlation coefficient as a...

Students use a graphing calculator to explore the relationship between the linear factors of a quadratic function and its zeros. They learn that the x-intercepts and axis of symmetry of a quadratic function can be determined from its...

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson introduces students to one of the prominent algorithms in graph theory used to find shortest paths -- the Djikstra Algorithm. The lesson includes four graphs of increasing...

Contains information on different kinds of Texas Instruments graphing calculators.

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson introduces students to the range of graphs which can be formed by adding and/or multiplying other trigonometric graphs together. Technology use is heavy in this lesson, in that...

Based off of the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson introduced students to the various parameters used in graphing the elementary sine function. Technology use is very heavy, as students are encouraged to graph different sinusoidal...

In this Derive activity, students relate the behavior of the graph of an exponential function to the signs of its first two derivatives. They realize that if the signs of the first two derivatives over a given interval are known, a...

In this activity, students walk in front of a calculator-based ranger CBR and try to match a distance-time graph. They examine the rate of change, and analyze and interpret the graph of a function.

Students will create distance-time and velocity-time graphs with CBL2 and motion detectors.
