Date:      Friday, 16th March 2018

Sign in:   9:00am   

Workshop 1: 9:15am to 12:00pm  

Mathematical Methods Unit 1

The Study Design for Unit 1 includes some mathematical concepts for which dynamic features of TI-Nspire™ CAS make it an ideal exploration tool. Participants will create dynamic, interactive documents to investigate various topics, including the bisection method, families of polynomial & power functions, transformations, inverse functions and rates of change. Participants will also set up simple probability simulations and obtain graphical displays of the

results, leading to informal consideration of proportions in samples.

Lunch: 12:00 to 12:30

Workshop 2: 12:30pm to 3:15pm 

Mathematical Methods Unit 3

Graphical, algebraic, numerical and spreadsheet functionalities of TI-Nspire™ CAS will be used to explore the various areas of study, including key features of circular and other functions, transformations of functions and differential calculus.

The Study Design indicates that the Unit 3 SAC (Application Task) should including situations requiring problem-solving, modelling or investigative techniques or approaches. Highlighted activities will illustrate ways in which TI-Nspire CAS can support these approaches, providing participants with skills that they can apply to their own SACs.
