Calculators and the elementary school: an idea and some implications
Calculators are now cheap enough to provide ready access to all elementary school students. I propose that this be done. This paper examines some of the potential impacts upon the elementary school mathematics curriculum. It suggests a need for a decrease in emphasis upon pencil-and-paper aided computation and an increase in both mental computation and the overall emphasis upon problem solving. It also lists some of the reasons why rapid introduction of calculators into the curriculum is apt not to occur.
