Learners investigate the slopes and parametric equations. In this calculus lesson plan, students solve parametric equations with specific parameters. They relate lines and slopes based on the derivative of the equation.

Learners perform factoring on the TI. In this algebra activity, young scholars factor equations using the FOIL method. They use the TI navigator to show each step using a visual.

Students explore the pattern created by a sequence or series. In this geometry lesson, students relate the spread of a virus to the growth of exponential functions. They collect data as they analyze the sequence created by the growth.

High schoolers identify properties of triangles. In this geometry lesson, students differentiate between similar and congruent triangles. They use the umber of sides to help define the angle of the polygon.

Mathematicians compare triangles at different scales. For this geometry lesson, learners calculate the area and perimeter of triangles. They use the Ti to make observation of the change that takes place as the triangles are dilated.

Students identify the ratios of different triangles. In this geometry instructional activity, students identify the similarity and differences of triangles. They use the navigator to move the sides of the triangle around.

Students identify the different angles and sides of a triangle. For this geometry lesson, students identify the six trigonometric ratios. They graph the graph of each trig function and analyze it.

Students identify the number of diagonals for each polygon. In this geometry lesson, students identify the polygons based on their diagonals and the way it intersect. They create visuals using the navigator to see the changes in the shapes.

Students graph systems of equation. In this algebra instructional activity, students find where the lines cross and identify the type of solution. They analyze a graph and write the equation of the line.

Students solve matrices using multiplication. In this algebra lesson, students identify the properties needed to multiply matrices. They define the terms matrix and dimensions.

Young scholars calculate the volume of polyhedrons. In this algebra instructional activity, students are asked to solve a complex problem. They identify the length of the edges and the volume of the shape.
