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

The article seeks to illustrate that calculators and problem solving complement each other perfectly. (MK)

A discussion is given of calculators in the classroom. Opinions and recommendations of various groups are incorporated. (MK)

Included are a detailed example of a calculator demonstration, the general principles to be followed in preparing a calculator demonstration, a list of demonstration topics for a calculus course, and some suggested topics for other courses. (MK)

An activity is described for introducing some fundamental notions in inferential statistics to students in elementary high school statistics courses. (MP)

A description is given of an approach to teaching a remedial mathematics course using calculators as a complete substitute for paper-and-pencil calculation. (MP)

Specially designed materials were used for teaching trigonometric ratios to 131 ninth- and tenth-grade students, one group using calculators and one not. Results on achievement were mixed. (MP)

Comparison of the computation ability in addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of 155 students (ages 9-14) with learning disabilities (LD) and 266 normally achieving (NA) students demonstrated that NA students outperformed students with LD. Students with LD had more algorithmic errors, and failed to show growth patterns by age. NA…

Discussion of connectionist views for adaptive clustering in information retrieval focuses on a connectionist clustering technique and activation spreading-based information retrieval model using the interaction information retrieval method. Presents theoretical as well as simulation results as regards computational complexity and includes…

Suggests use of the quadratic formula to build understanding that connections between factors and solutions to equations work both ways. Making use of natural connections among concepts allows students to work more efficiently. Presents four sample problems showing the roots of equations. Messy quadratic equations with rational roots can be solved…

Enumeration and numerical reasoning levels of 19 children with specific language impairment (SLI) were compared to children matched for age and children matched for grammatical ability (GM). Children with SLI performed better than the GM group on reproduction of sets, numerosity of sets, an addition/subtraction condition, and transformation…

Discusses a meaningful experience, conceptually, of multiplication of fractions. (Author/YDS)

Describes a framework to help teachers decide when to use calculators with their students. (YDS)

Discusses a content-integration program in which Spanish is introduced while mathematics and other subjects are reinforced, creating a winning combination for students, teachers, and preservice teachers alike. (Author/NB)

Explores young children's intuitive strategies for partitioning sets of objects. (Author/NB)
