Selecting a Calculator for Online Testing

Aware offers a basic calculator and is further powered by three Desmos Calculators. Teachers may enable a calculator support for students in the Online tab of the assessment. Learn more about enabling and managing additional student supports and capturing calculator time, support usage, and test medium. 

Note: The Enable calculator setting gives all students access to the selected calculator. To ensure the basic calculator is available only to students who need it as a support, select the button next to Basic before disabling the calculator as a whole. Disabling the calculator in these test settings will remove the calculator support for all students except those who have already been assigned that support.
