Abstract: 

Item Layouts determine the orientation of the stimulus and the items as they appear in the Test Delivery System. This guide describes the layout options and how they should govern test item appearance.

As of Fall 2018 the Smarter Balanced Test Delivery System (TDS) is no longer supported.

The code base and documentation for the TDS is available within the Smarter Balanced GitHub repository.
