Programmable Calculators with a computer link are now affordable for individual student use. It is possible to design calculator software that transforms these calculators into personal computers for every elementary school student to use as conveniently as a textbook. Programs can be stored on a computer disk and are easily loaded into a class set of calculators to meet individual or class lesson needs. The advantages of computer aided instruction are accessible to every student for school and home use. Early age student use of this individual technology, parent involvement at home and better open ended problem solving are now possible. CalcuSoft, Inc. proposes initially to develop calculator software for fourth grade mathematics by linking our pilot test in one classroom to six more classrooms, funded by this Phase I research project. The outcomes will guide development of their product and a Phase II proposal that includes applications in science and special education.

带计算机连接的可编程计算器现在供学生个人使用。可以设计计算器软件，将这些计算器转换为个人计算机，供每个小学生像教科书一样方便地使用。程序可以存储在计算机磁盘上，并且可以很容易地加载到一组计算器中，以满足个人或班级的课程需要。计算机辅助教学的优点是每个学生都可以在学校和家庭使用。早期学生使用这种个人技术，家长在家参与，以及更好的开放式问题解决现在是可能的。CalcuSoft，Inc.最初提议开发四年级数学的计算器软件，将我们在一个教室的试点测试与另外六个教室联系起来，由这个第一阶段研究项目资助。这些成果将指导其产品的开发，以及包括在科学和特殊教育中的应用的第二阶段提案。
