Coward, P. H. – Mathematics Teaching, 1978
An attitude survey and arithmetic tests were given to samples of students in order to quantify the benefit obtained from their use of calculators. Results showed that the use of the calculators does improve students' arithmetic performance with the less able students showing about twice the improvement of the more able. (MN)
