Localized Models
Tailored to Languages and Curricula
Every year, approximately 20 million new students purchase Casio scientific calculators and use them for classes and examinations.
One of the reasons teachers and students choose Casio is that the calculators offer “localized models.”
What is a localized model?
A localized model is a scientific calculator developed to match the language and educational curriculum of each country or region.
This ensures easy and intuitive operation in class, providing an environment that allows students to answer more accurately and quickly during examinations.
How many localized models exist?
Casio provides scientific calculators to educational settings in about 100 countries and regions worldwide and has developed 78 types of localized models. (as of January, 2026 ＊Only scientific calculators with Natural Textbook Display feature)
By offering a diverse lineup, Casio aims to meet individual needs and lower the barrier to ease of use.
Examples of localized models
1. ClassWiz CW Series Scientific Calculators (Spain & Portugal)
Spain and Portugal are multilingual countries where different languages are spoken depending on the region.
These localized models support major languages including Spanish, Catalan, Basque, Galician, and Portuguese.
There is no need to purchase separate calculators for each language—students can simply choose the language that suits their learning from a single device.
The supported models are fx-991SP CW, fx-570SP CW, fx-85SP CW, and fx-82SP CW.
More details:
It is not only calculators that support multiple languages.
In addition, support is provided locally to ensure alignment with each region’s curriculum and calculator models.
2. fx-92+ Collège (France)
Algorithm Example on fx‑92+ Collège
In France, scientific calculators are used for lessons at “collège,” which corresponds to junior high school.
The fx-92+ Collège supports not only languages but also features aligned with the curriculum.
The new curriculum, introduced in stages starting in 2019, clearly incorporates digital literacy and basic programming.
The fx-92+ Collège allows students to create simple calculation or graphing programs using built-in commands such as loops, conditionals, and variables.
Additionally, the created programs can be converted and displayed in Scratch, or shared via ClassPad.net.
This eliminates the need to purchase new software or hardware dedicated to algorithm learning.
The model’s appearance also has unique characteristics.
While most scientific calculators are black, the fx-92+ Collège features a bright green color.
This helps teachers and students easily identify the model in stores and avoid purchasing the wrong one.
Using the same model facilitates clearer and more efficient teaching and learning.
By offering localized models, Casio helps teachers teach with confidence and students learn with ease.
Casio aims to create a world where everyone—teachers and students alike—can enjoy and stay engaged in learning.
