Calculus - How Can One Graph Help Describe Another Graph?
This activity incorporates the graphing calculator to help students understand how the behavior of one graph can describe the behavior of another function. Three related equations are entered in y1, y2, and y3 in the graphing calculator. • The original function is entered in y1. • An expression that represents the derivative of y1 is entered in y2. • An expression that represents the derivative of y2 is entered in y3. After graphing y1, y2, and y3 in the same window, a series of questi

Calculus-Making Observations about the Function and Its Derivatives from Graphs
This discovery activity is made up of 5 part plus a closing question. Part I: Students graph a function and its derivative. From the two graphs students observe that when the graph of the derivative of y1 is positive the graph of y1 is increasing and that when the graph of the derivative of y1 is negative the graph of decreasing. Part II: In part I students studied a function with a minimum. In this part students will repeat the same observations but with a function that has a maximum. Part II

Are You Faster Than a 7th Grader? Percent of Change Activity
Looking for an activity for students to practice PERCENT OF CHANGE in a real world context? In this activity, students will time themselves writing the alphabet with their dominant hand, then their non-dominant hand (wait until you hear the laughter that comes when they write with their opposite hand! ). Then, they will calculate the PERCENT INCREASE or DECREASE between the two times. Most predict that they will write slower with their non-dominant hand, but you'll be surprised by the result

Pre-Calculus - Maximizing the Volume of a Cone
This hands-on activity engages the students in constructing a cone from a circle,collecting data on the height and radius of the cone, creating a scatterplot, fitting a curve to the data and then estimating the maximum volume of the cone. Many students are surprised that the scatterplot indicates that the volume first slowly increases and then after a maximum volume occurs the volume quickly decreases. By working with a physical model helps students observe how the height, radius, and volume

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Hearing: How Much Louder to Notice a Difference?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.1 for hearing) to calculate the just noticeable difference (JND) in loudness for ten stimulus intensities ranging from 20 to 110 dB. After completing the data table, students plot intensity on the x-axis and JND on the y-axis, identify the linear relationship, and explain in everyday language how the JND grows proportionally with intensity. A real-world application problem asks students to calculate the minimum loudness increase a concert-goer

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Smell: How Much Stronger Before You Notice?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.05 for smell) to calculate JNDs for ten odor concentrations ranging from 20 to 500 AU (arbitrary units). After completing the data table and plotting the graph, students describe the linear intensity-JND relationship and explain how the olfactory system's sensitivity relates proportionally to baseline concentration.

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Taste: How Much Saltier Before You Notice?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.20 for saltiness) to calculate JNDs for ten salt concentrations ranging from 1 to 40 g/L. The relatively high k value for taste (compared to vision and kinesthesis) gives students data that demonstrates taste's lower sensitivity to proportional changes. After graphing, students describe the linear relationship and explain what the larger k value implies about gustatory discrimination. A real-world problem asks students to calculate the minimum

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Temperature: How Hot Before You Feel the Diff.
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.07 for temperature) to calculate JNDs for ten temperatures ranging from 10 to 55°C. The lab introduces students to thermal sensation as a measurable, Weber's Law-governed sensory modality. After graphing and identifying the linear relationship, students explain how the JND for temperature grows with baseline temperature.

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Touch: How Much Pressure Before You Feel More?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.14 for touch/pressure) to calculate JNDs for ten pressure intensities ranging from 50 to 1500 g. The wide range of values — from light touch to heavy pressure — gives students data that clearly illustrates the proportional scaling of JND across a broad sensory range. After graphing, students describe the linear relationship. A real-world problem asks students to calculate the minimum pressure increase a massage therapist named Squishy would nee

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Vision: How Much Brighter Before Your Eye Notices
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.02 for brightness) to calculate JNDs for ten light intensities ranging from 100 to 3000 candelas (cd). The very low k value for vision — the lowest in the collection alongside kinesthesis — demonstrates that the visual system is among the most sensitive to proportional changes, requiring only a 2% change for detection. After graphing, students note the linear relationship and discuss the implications of the small k value. A real-world problem a

Psychology Lab Weber's Law and Kinesthesis: How Much Heavier Before You Feel It?
Students apply Weber's Law (ΔI = k × I, where k = 0.02 for kinesthesis) to calculate JNDs for ten lifted weights ranging from 100 to 5000 g. Sharing the same k value as vision (0.02), this lab allows for cross-modal comparison of sensitivity and demonstrates that the kinesthetic system — despite sensing a very different type of stimulus — matches visual sensitivity in proportional discrimination. After graphing, students describe the linear relationship. A real-world problem asks students to cal
