# Calculators in Classrooms

### Using them sensibly

Paul Swan

A wide selection of games and activities to support effective calculator use. But that’s not all! Teaching notes, together with work samples and student comments, provide background and ideas for extending and adapting the activities. And sections which address learning to drive a calculator and some of the reservations about their use will be a great help to teachers looking for up-to-date, research-based information.

This book is based on the popular “Kids, Calculators and Classrooms” (1996) – although users of the previous volume will find some familiar activities, the expansions and additional teacher support material will make it well worth updating the copy in your classroom.
