Pupils examine deposits found in a river in this science lesson. They collect data of sediment deposit found in the Mississippi river, then graph and analyze their data using the TI.

Learners study weather using a graphing calculator in this lesson. They collect data for temperature and relative humidity for every hour over a day from the newspaper, then place the data in their handheld calculator and examine it for...

Learners calculate percent change and create lists of data. They enter the corresponding bushels of corn measured in billions to their list and display, then convert the acres into scientific notation and use the value on the home screen...

Students monitor a local creek. In this environmental water instructional activity, students conduct an environmental study of a local creek by monitoring the temperature and water quality over a period of time, then submit data to the...

In this Hubble's law worksheet, students use data for galaxies which include their distance and speed. Students make a graph to show the distance to each galaxy and the speed of each galaxy. They use their graph to answer 4 questions...

In this recognizing and interpreting a histogram worksheet, students read and record the data and answer word problems using that data. Students solve 14 problems.

Eighth graders examine international data and statistics to evaluate the health and trends of 13 year old students around the world.

Students compare differences in amino acids in the beta hemoglobin from representative primates, complete a matrix of those differences, and from these data, construct and interpret cladograms as they reflect relationships and timing of...

Students collect, organize by table, and examine census data in a simulation, estimate the size of the population in the simulation and make predictions based on the collection of census simulation data.

Students analyze demographic data relating to teen pregnancy trends. They develop skills to locate and interpret data. They discuss the factors that influence teenage pregancy such as social, economic, and educational issues.

Learners determine how to sort data when presented with data cards about plants. This game requires students to make inferences about why plants might live in a particular environment and how physical characteristics influence survival...

Third graders review important vocabulary to explain measures of central tendency and reaction time. In pairs, they measure reaction time of dropping and catching a ruler. Data is collected after repeated catches and information is...

Students analyze the results of a hypothetical cloning experiment using a restriction endonuclease map obtained from an on-line data source. They answer the question, "How can I tell if the DNA I have obtained from this hypothetical...

Students read the story "Weslandia" by Paul Fleischman, define the term microclimate, gather and record data in various places on school grounds to establish the presence of difference microclimates, analyze and compare microclimates,...

Students select appropriate tools and technology to perform tests, collect data, and display data. They construct appropriate graphs from data and develop qualitative statements about the relationships between variables.

Students sort and graph various types of pasta. Using pasta construction paper patterns or real pasta, they sort the pasta by color, size, and type, and record the data on a graph.

Students import UNEP World population data/projections from either the World Population Prospects: The 2002 Revision Population Database - UN Population Division or a text file. They graph this data by itself, and then along with...

Pupils explore linear functions in this lesson when they collect and analyze data as a chemical reaction proceeds. Learners record pressure versus time data and model the data as a linear function. They also examine the concept of slope...

Learners explore the health of aquatic life in this science lesson They measure and track the oxygen level in the water to determine the health of the aquatic life. They collect this data using the TI explorer to graph and analyze their...

Learners create constant speed versus motion graphs. They will perform linear regressions on their data to describe the graphs mathematically.

High schoolers use 2 sets of colored beans to represent the genes of an organism. In this genetic probability lesson plan, students use the colored beans to represent the genotypes of offspring which they pull out of a box at random...

In this periodic functions worksheet, students use given data of the speed of a star and find the best fit periodic function that follows the trend in data. They determine the amplitude, offset phase and the formula for the angle. They...

Students write an equation for a linear function. In this algebra lesson, students collect data, plot it and graph it. They identify the equation of the graphed data and define the slope and y-intercept of the graph.

Learners use E-STAT to examine demographics. For this social demographics lesson, students use statistical data to determine if a particular family is in need of assistance. Learners will discuss social and educational policies and...
