fully integrated technology • Multiple representations, dynamically linked, encouraging multiple approaches to solving problems and expressing solutions. • A complete set of easy-to-use mathematical tools for algebra, number, geometry, statistics and real-world data collection - all in one package. • Working documents can be saved, recalled, edited and transferred between handheld, PC and Mac - and distributed electronically! • An optimal tool for concept and skill development across the secondary school years.
what is TI-Nspire CAS? Just imagine… The statistical and graphical power of the TI-84Plus… The algebraic power of the TI-89T… The interactive geometry of the Voyage 200… Now integrate these with spreadsheeting, real-world data collection and more…
what is TI-Nspire CAS? TI-Nspire CAS integrates list and spreadsheet capabilities, supporting… real-world data collection and a complete range of easy-to-use menu-driven statistical functions.
Consider this problem: At exactly what value of x do the curves y = ax and y = loga(x) kiss? how is TI-Nspire CAS different to the TI-89T? Using the TI-89T… 1. INVESTIGATE GRAPHICALLY By trial and error, define various values for “a” and observe the effect on the graph. 2. BUILD AN ALGEBRAIC SOLUTION Carefully solve the problem algebraically – ensuring that all expressions are entered correctly!
Consider this problem: At exactly what value of x do the curves y = ax and y = loga(x) kiss? TI-Nspire CAS: different to the TI-89T? How? Using TI-Nspire CAS… 2. Use templates to easily and correctly enter all expressions: input and output both expressed in mathematical notation! 3. Students use Notes to explain their thinking and describe the solution process. 1. Easily create a slider and explore many possible values for “a”. Label algebraic objects correctly using templates.
