For this geometry worksheet, students plot coordinate pairs and connect the points to create different shapes. They give th shapes its polygon's name. They differentiate between simple functions and rectangular hyperbola.

Students study operations with real numbers using mental computation or paper-and-pencil calculations. They judge the reasonableness of numerical computations and their results. They set up and solve proportions for direct and inverse...

Students research water management strategies in Texas. They analyze projected demand for water in the year 2050, interpret graphs and tables and then discuss the data as part of a written report. They research and map the locations of...

Young scholars manipulate a ball and explore quadratic functions. In this algebra lesson, learners analyze the graph of a quadratic function. They identify quadratic properties.

In this electrical circuit quiz, students use schematics to answer a series of 7 open-ended performance based questions to show their understanding of Thevenin's and Norton's theorem about electrical circuits. This quiz can be printed...

Students investigate the Math behind Musical instruments in this cross-curricular Math lesson on the Native American Flute and waveforms. The lesson can be accomplished in 6 days and includes an extensive materials list for successful...

Teach how to explore exponential equations.  In this Algebra II instructional activity, students investigate the graph that occurs as a hot liquid cools.  Students model the data algebraically.

Students investigate quadratics through word problems. In this algebra lesson, students models the number of registered males in apprenticeship programs. They investigate the transformation of quadratic function on a coordinate plane.

Pupils solve equations with absolute value bars. For this precalculus lesson, students graph and identify the vertex and translation of absolute value functions. They match equations with given graphs.

Students perform transformation on trig functions. In this precalculus lesson, students relate the London Eye observation wheel to trig function. They use a TI navigator to visualise the parameter created by this view and relate it to...

Students create three dimensional shapes using concept maps. In this geometry lesson, students investigate the impact of mental schemas on humans. They collect data on this topic and plot their data on a coordinate plane.

Students collect and analyze variable data and understand the concept of electrical power.  For this energy lesson students use a spreadsheet to manage their data and create box plots. 

Students create a collect data on expenses. In this algebra lesson, students create a spreadsheet to solve scientific equations. They incorporate math, science and technology in this lesson.

In this transformation worksheet, students find the linear transformation of equations and use the Mobius transformation to identify image boundaries. Students describe the images in each quadrant. This two page worksheet contains six...

In this math activity, students consider a path around the unit circle parameterized by σ on the interval [0, 1] with σ(t) = sin(5πt − π), cos(5πt − π). Then they find the vector.

In this math worksheet, students practice using the program of Matlab and apply them while using functions. They practice writing equations in truncated form.

Students investigate error. As shown in earlier activities from navigation lessons 1 through 3, without an understanding of how errors can affect position, one cannot navigate well. Students explore how computers can help in navigation....

In this plane worksheet, students find the midpoint of a line, determine points on a plane, and use the cross product to find an equation with given parameters. This two-page worksheet contains three problems.

Students calculate the area under a curve. In this calculus lesson, students use Riemann sums to find and approximate the area under a curve. They use the derivative and differential equations to solve.

Pupils study how to complete thermochemical equations.  In this equation lesson students learn how to manipulate equations to calculate energy changes and reactions.

Eighth graders identify the different applications of fractals. In this math lesson, 8th graders use graphing calculator to solve algorithms. They explain how changing parameters and initial conditions affect the solutions.
