Calculus is one of the most challenging math courses to teach and learn online or in-person.
Derivita provides a digital tool box built for success with a mastery based approach, immediate instructor feedback, and a variety of assessment options for homework, quizzes, and exams.
Derivita detects differences in properties and forms of math expressions to provide immediate and meaningful feedback using the student's own answers. Students know what adjustments need to be made and can reflect, respond, and continue to progress in your class. Immediate feedback helps students master key concepts and become more confident in their math abilities, which helps keep students stay motivated and engaged throughout the course.
Derivita is the first of it's kind math platform built around a computer algebra system (CAS) that can actually do math! From Calculus I through Calculus III, even complex problems and open-ended questions are fully auto-graded to provide you with immediate insight and to help you identify strengths and gaps.
Every Derivita Assignment includes an Overview that provides you with the information you need to quickly and easily assess where your students' performance and where they may have knowledge gaps.
No student information is displayed on the dashboard, so you can also work through problems in class, demonstrate commons errors, and display fully worked solutions. If you notice your students are struggling with certain concepts, you can quickly and easily add questions from any math topic to immediately remediate knowledge gaps.

Derivita questions are automatically randomized to ensure that students receive unique questions and can practice important concepts on their path to mastery. You set the number of randomizations and attempts as well as specific settings for homework, quizzes, and exams.
Derivita can be used with ANY Calculus textbook or open educational resource. With prebuilt alignments for all major Calculus textbooks, assignments, quizzes, and exams can be compiled quickly and easily for any course from Calculus I through Calculus III.
Derivita includes the widest variety of Calculus question types from open-ended questions to 3D interactive graphs and 3D objects that students can manipulate. Students input answers using the Derivita toolbar and immediately see how their answers are being interpreted.
When students consistently struggle to get the right answer, Derivita provides immediate, actionable feedback using the student's own answers. Once a student uses all of their attempts, they are shown a fully worked solution. Students can then try another, similar question until they have mastered each learning objective.
From homework assignments to quizzes to higher stakes "one and done" exams, Derivita has you covered in Calculus! You can choose which mode to apply to each assignment and select from a number of customizable settings including: randomizations, attempts, show solutions, time limits, and accommodations.
