Abstract
With the widespread availability of inexpensive calculators, educators and parents have expressed concern over the effects of calculator use on basic mathematics skills. They want to know the impact calculators will have on learning before they sanction the use of calculators in the classroom. On the other hand, proponents of calculators in schools cite increased motivation and better understanding as potential benefits of calculator use.Keywords
