TI-Nspire Activities

TI-Nspire ActivitiesThis page contains a large selection of activities that students can interact with to learn and review a wide variety of topics and skills for IB Maths SL & HL students. Some of the activities are also suitable for teachers to use for conducting dynamic and effective demonstrations in the classroom. Students engage with each activity by means of a TI-Nspire file that can be performed on a TI-Nspire handheld device, TI-Nspire computer software, or the TI-Nspire app for the iPad.

Each activity below includes two items: (1) a brief video (around 1 to 3 minutes) that gives a teacher an overview of the avtivity and tips/ideas before students work with the activity, and (2) the TI-Nspire file (.tns file suffix) that contains the interactive activity which will need to be placed on each student's TI-Nspire device. Click on the name of the TI-Nspire file to download it.
Note: Although the 'type' of each TI-Nspire file is a TI-Nspire CAS Teacher Software Document, it will run on both the CAS and non-CAS version of the handheld device or computer software.

♦   41 TI-Nspire activities / teacher videos   ♦

Click on name of activity to move directly to the teacher video and TI-Nspire file download for that activity - or simply scroll through the activities/teacher videos below the list (appear in same order as in the list). There is a very brief description given for each activity, but the best way to gain some insight into the activity is to watch the teacher video - by either clicking on the embedded video or clicking on the name of the activity which will open the Youtube video. Clicking on the name of the TI-Nspire file will allow you to download the file (TI-Nspire document).
