Peer reviewedTaylor, Lyn, Ed.; Thompson, Virginia, Comp. – Arithmetic Teacher, 1992
Postulated here is the notion that the exploration of number patterns with calculators is a valuable mathematical learning activity that should be commenced in the primary grades. Various activities are presented that make use of the constant function key, which is available on many of the inexpensive four-function calculators. (JJK)
