Hand-Held Calculators and Potential Redesign of the School Mathematics Curriculum
Pollak, Henry O.
Mathematics Teacher, 70, 4, 293-296, Apr 77
Citing some past educational fads, the author addresses the curricular opportunities afforded by the hand-held calculator. He argues that students can gain deeper insight into many mathematical concepts by actually experiencing them. The availability of calculators will also cause some topics to disappear from the curriculum. (SD)
