Texas Instruments: Numb3 Rs: Lost and Found

Curated by ACT

Based off the hit television show NUMB3RS, this lesson introduces students to chaos theory, and specifically Levy flight paths. These allow students to "trace back" where an object may have originated, given its endpoint. This lesson is framed in the context of needing to narrow a search area in the desert, which students accomplish by finding three Levy flight paths and then restricting the desert to a smaller area containing the three possible starting points.
