Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Exploring Infinite Series
For this activity, students learn to identify geometric series. They determine if a sequence converges and also learn to calculate the sum of numbers in a geometric series.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Serious Series
Students learn about geometric and telescoping series and the relationship between the sequence of partial sums of a series and its sum. They then use the CAS of their TI-89 and calculus to determine the sum of these series.
