Fay, Michael – Mathematics Teacher, 2016
Activities for Students appears five times each year in Mathematics Teacher, promoting student-centered activities that teachers can adapt for use in their own classroom. In the course of the activities presented here, students will "look for and make use of structure" by observing algebraic patterns in the power rule and "use…

Mulekar, Madhuri S.; Siegel, Murray H. – Mathematics Teacher, 2009
If students are to understand inferential statistics successfully, they must have a profound understanding of the nature of the sampling distribution. Specifically, they must comprehend the determination of the expected value and standard error of a sampling distribution as well as the meaning of the central limit theorem. Many students in a high…

Lamb, John H. – Mathematics Teacher, 2007
This article outlines a linear regression activity that engages learners, uses technology, and fosters cooperation. Students generated least-squares linear regression equations using TI-83 Plus[TM] graphing calculators, Microsoft[C] Excel, and paper-and-pencil calculations using derived normal equations to predict the 2004 presidential election.…

Stohl, Hollylynne; Harper, Suzanne R. – Mathematics Teacher, 2004
Two technology guidelines are contributed by Robin Rider of East Carolina University based on the TI-Interactive software she had introduced. The two guidelines to use for this software consist firstly of data gathering with a Calculator-Based Laboratory (CBL) and Calculator-Based Ranger (CBR) without a graphing calculator, and secondly the…

Bratton, George N. – Mathematics Teacher, 1999
Discusses the impact of technology such as graphing calculators or statistical software packages on statistics instruction and curriculum as it makes teaching some topics unnecessary, makes instruction in some topics better, and allows for the teaching of some topics that have never been taught. (ASK)
