The calculator provides several new functions (as of February 2019) for computing statistical properties from lists of data, performing basic statistical tests, counting combinations and permutations, and working with distributions. These functions are accessible from the "Stats" and "Dist" sections of the "functions" menu in the keypad, or can be typed directly into the expressions list using a keyboard.

Why Desmos Activities?

  • Collaboration: Use devices to connect students, not to isolate them. Students see their classmates' thinking. They ask each other questions and create challenges for each other.
  • Meaningful Feedback: Show students what their answers mean, then give them the opportunity to improve their thinking and revise their work.
  • Challenge Creator: Use devices to connect students, not to isolate them. Students see their classmates' thinking. They ask each other questions and create challenges for each other.

Graph

If you'd like to import a saved graph into a graph component in Activity Builder, all you need is the link to the graph.

  • On a blank graph screen, simply paste the link to the saved graph into the first expression.
  • Note: this currently only works when building an activity - it's not possible for students to do this on their screens.
