The Math Forum: A Collection of Secondary Math Units
Teachers of grades 9-12 can explore these seven math units for their classes. Data collection and analysis, problem solving with spreadsheets, and linear transformation are just a few of the topics covered here.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Non Linear Association I
This set contains statistics questions regarding non-linear association: straightening data using logarithmic and power transformations. The student analyzes which type of regression will best model the data.
Illustrative Mathematics
Illustrative Mathematics: F Bf.3 Transforming the Graph of a Function
This task examines, in a graphical setting, the impact of adding a scalar, multiplying by a scalar, and making a linear substitution of variables on the graph of a function f. There is no formula for the function so the focus is on...
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Using the Transform Application in an Algebra Class
This activity is intended to be a discovery activity for students to determine the effect that changing m and b have on the equation y=mx+b. There is a teacher guide and an activity to determine the student's level of understanding.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Transformation Graphing App
This App helps students improve graphing comprehension. They input functions, view visual diagrams of functions, and observe changes in the function as the parameters change.
