This article presents an annotated selection of the most important and informative Internet resources for learning about quantum computing, finding quantum computing literature, and tracking quantum computing news. All of the quantum computing resources described in this article are freely available, English-language web sites that fall into one…

Relations among the number and types of strategies used by 89 college students when estimating, quantitative ability, and computational estimation ability were investigated. Students of relatively high quantitative ability were found to be better estimators and used more strategy types. (MP)

Twenty-eight sources on calculators are listed in this partially annotated bibliography. (MK)

Discusses students' inability to make the connection between manipulative materials and pencil-and-paper calculations in mathematics instruction. Outlines the development of mathematical ideas through the concrete, representational, and abstract phases of instruction. An annotated bibliography listing teacher resources for representational-level…

Included are activities published in this regular column in the "Arithmetic Teacher" from 1980-90 organized by topics and presented in a month-by-month format. Topics include estimation, fractions and decimals, geometry and spatial sense, measurement, number sense and numeration, problem solving, statistics and probability, and whole number…

Discusses rationale for use of children's counting books and guidelines for selection and use. Provides suggestions for writing individual or class counting books. Includes an annotated booklist. (HTH)

Points out aspects of counting books that may impede learning, notes general and specific criteria for evaluating counting books, and offers an annotated bibliography illustrating the application of criteria. (RH)

This annotated bibliography includes activities with calculators in the areas of computational skills, geometry, measurement, number pattern recognition, and probability. (MK)

Counting books offer children the time and the tools to develop the understanding needed to solve problems. Stimulated by these books, children may use mathematic language and talk about mathematics as they get involved with materials to move and manipulate, as they use supportive aids found in illustrations, and as they interact with materials to…

These 18 bulletins list references on the uses of calculators pertinent to education. They were published at intervals to provide teachers and other interested persons with sources of information about calculator activities and research findings. The bulletins focus on several categories of references: (1) articles on instruction with hand-held…

Research on error patterns associated with whole number computation is reviewed. Details of the results of some of the individual studies cited are given in the appendices. In Appendix A, 33 addition errors, 27 subtraction errors, 41 multiplication errors, and 41 division errors are identified, and the frequency of these errors made by 352…

This document consists of a list of the references on calculators which were collected by the Calculator Information Center prior to June 1979. Included are references which previously appeared on bulletins distributed by the Center, plus articles from newsletters and similar less readily available sources and from non-American sources. Most…

Fourteen research reports related to mathematics education are abstracted and analyzed. Five of the reports deal with various student characteristics, four with teaching techniques, two with calculators, and one each with placement, open education, and teacher education. Research related to mathematics education which was reported in RIE and CIJE…

This document reviews approximately 200 children's books in mathematics for the early grades. The 1975 and 1976 editions of "Children's Books in Print" were used to generate the book list, and all but approximately 20 of the titles listed were located for this review. Each review presented describes content and accuracy, illustrations and their…

Suggests ways that children's literature can be used to extend mathematical thinking to daily life and events in the preschool and primary grades classroom. Discusses books pertaining to such events as the calendar, celebrating birthdays, the daily schedule, taking attendance, and the lunch menu. (BB)
