Smarter Balanced offers an online calculator powered by Desmos that is both free to students and includes cutting edge accessibility features that enable students who are visually impaired or blind to use online calculators.

More than 7 million students across the nation take the first widely available computer-adaptive summative test. The K-12 computer adaptive technology (CAT) adjusts the difficulty of questions throughout the assessment based on the student’s response.

Smarter Balanced releases online, interactive samples of test questions and performance tasks. A core feature of Smarter Balanced assessments is that they are customized for each student for more accurate measurement.
