The electronic hand-held calculator is a tool that can be used as an integral part of the elementary school mathematics curriculum. With calculators so abundant and inexpensive, each child should be able to have a calculator for appropriate use in mathematics and in other subjects where mathematics can be applied. Although some materials are available that support the use of the calculator in the elementary school, there exists currently no coherent set of materials that looks at the curriculum in a new light, assuming that the calculator is an essential tool to be used in learning and doing mathematics. This project will develop a model for change in the K-6 mathematics curriculum, based on the assumption that every child has a calculator. Anticipated changes include diminishing time spent on certain topics (such as long division) and increasing time spent on other topics (such as problem solving and reasoning). The project will develop a set of calculator-based student materials for Grades K-6 designed to be flexible enough to stand alone or be supplementary; a set of teacher materials that will include a guide for teaching mathematics using calculators and student evaluation materials with protocols for evaluating student work when engaged in activities such as problem solving; and materials on the use of calculators in an elementary setting, to be used in the preservice preparation of teachers. The project will be a collaborative effort of the California State University at Fulleraton and the Los Angeles Unified School District. One of the goals of the project is to create a replicable model for university-school district cooperation in curriculum development and teacher education.

电子手持计算器是一种工具，可以用作小学数学课程的组成部分。 随着计算器如此丰富且廉价的计算器，每个孩子都应该能够有一个计算器，以便在数学和其他可以应用数学的受试者中使用。 尽管有一些支持在小学中使用计算器使用的材料，但是当前没有一组连贯的材料集以新的方式看课程，假设计算器是学习和进行数学的必不可少的工具。 该项目将基于每个孩子都有计算器的假设，将开发一个用于更改K-6数学课程的模型。 预期的变化包括在某些主题上花费的时间减少（例如长期分裂）以及在其他主题上花费的时间增加（例如解决问题和推理）。该项目将为K-6年级开发一套基于计算器的学生材料，旨在灵活地独自一人或补充；一组教师材料，其中包括使用计算器和学生评估材料教授数学指南，并在从事解决问题等活动时评估学生工作；以及用于在基本环境中使用计算器的材料，可用于教师的前者准备。 该项目将是加利福尼亚州立大学富勒顿和洛杉矶统一学区的合作努力。 该项目的目标之一是为课程发展和教师教育方面的大学学校区合作创建可复制的模型。
