    For grade-school kids, are calculators a computational crutch or a tool that helps them conquer complex problems?http://on.wsj.com/20fq73g

        @mcjomcg Fir myself, I am much slower at arithmetic and algebra problems than I used to be. Whether just from age or the use of calcs?

        I have a friend who compares doing math in her head with running with scissors.

        Always good at higher math, never mastered simple addition, subtraction, multiplying or dividing. Uncle had given me his college...

        Not that the SAT is the be-all and end-all, but to ignore its future appearance is ignoring one of the things you're preparing them for

        And if you don't teach grade-school kids how to do math efficiently without calculators, they'll be screwed in 8ish years on #newSAT...

        I wasn't allowed to use a calculator as a kid. It didn't make me better or faster, just more frustrated. High IQ, poor working memory.
