TWO DIFFERENT WAYS TO ADD
When using a Desmos calculator, the calculator needs to be added to its own item and the associated student question needs to be added to a separate item.
This can be done two different ways; Above and Below or Side-by-Side
Above and Below
- Create an item that houses the Desmos graphing calculator
- Then create second item that houses the associated question.
Side-By-Side
(using the Settings/Layout option)
- Select the Add Item button, then click on Settings
- Make sure the Layout tab is selected
3. Make you selections and click Apply
4. Add the Desmos calculator to one side and the associated question to the other.
