Regression

[Travis Bower]

Here's a simple 'how to' for regressions. It is not Activity Exchange caliber, nor as robust as some of the docs you will find on this site, but a nice little niche for newbies, nonetheless.

1) I present it as an example of what is possible with minimal knowledge of how to use the Nspire; an encouragement for beginners. As a teacher, you possess the mathematical content and expertise. The Nspire is merely another means of teaching/learning, delivering that content. {okay, not so 'merely' , but rather a potent piece of the pedagogical picture}

2) I suggest some alternatives for sending docs

Instead of printing on paper, how about going paper-less with doc.tns?

Suggestions
If students have Student Software (which now comes with the Nspire) or Ti Computer Link Software which is free (Ti Downloads)
1) email to students [I have students enter their email addresses into my grade program--EasyGradePro, then I just copy/paste the column or create a group]
2) post on your website [ we use edline.net, but I think wix.com is free]
3) If you have a Dock or Navigator, you know more than I! [I hope to get one soon]
4) send hh to hh via usb [sending on the Nspire is so much better than with the 84; faster and less key strokes. Also, save all those extra cables, they will come in handy since they are no longer included in the packaging-perhaps TI thought 1-3 above will suffice]

Anyway, feel free to edit and use as you see fit (I cranked it out quickly--I might add blank pages or instructions for students to insert pages as an example of improvement) If you substantially improve it, send it back to me :^).

So, what doc is percolating in your cranium? Start pouring it into the minds of the future.
