Calculator

This section contains a Flash animation about entering data, graphing data, and creating a mathematical model of data. The calculator used in the animation is the TI-83 plus. All instructions will work on the TI-82 and the TI-83. If the animation does not play click here to download the free flash player.

CBR

This section contains information about the use of the CBR (calculator based ranger) a motion sensor data collection device produced by Texas Instruments. The calculator used in the demonstration is the TI-82. All instructions will work on the TI-83 and the TI-83 plus.

Graphlink

This section contains information about the installation and use of the Graphlink computer - calculator interface on a PC. This technology allows the upload and download of data between a computer and the graphing calculator. The calculator used in the demonstration is the TI-82. All instructions will work on the TI-83 and the TI-83plus.

CBL

This section contains information about the use of the CBL (calculator based laboratory) a multipurpose data collection interface. Temperature, light, voltage, motion, and many other types of data can be collected using this tool. The calculator used in the demonstration is the TI-82.
