Really basic question… how do I access the computational layer?

Welcome!!

1. Log in to Desmos Classroom: [https://teacher.desmos.com/](https://teacher.desmos.com/)
2. Go to: [https://teacher.desmos.com/custom](https://teacher.desmos.com/custom) . Here you’ll find all your custom activities.
3. Click “Create New Activity”.
4. Now you can add components to your activity and you can write some CL code for each component.

But before that I suggest you check the tutorial here:  
[https://teacher.desmos.com/computation-layer/documentation#](https://teacher.desmos.com/computation-layer/documentation#)  
so that you start familiarizing with how CL works.

hope this helps.
