Texas Instruments and the JASON Foundation for Education, in cooperation with Vernier, have created a series of hands-on activities that engage students in real world, inquiry-based learning. These sample lessons extend the JASON curriculum, bringing out the math in science and giving students opportunities to explore key concepts with powerful, but simple, TI and Vernier products.
