Effects of Calculators on StudentsPositive effects on students who know basic
mathMore fun, able to do more problems w/ less
errors learn how to do more calculator
functionsNegative effects on students who do not
know basic math become dependent on calculators

Area of InteractionHuman Ingenuity- Why do we create things?The calculator was created to make
mathematical functions easier. It was also created to do more functions with more numbers than the Abacus.
