THE IMPORTANCE OF
COMPUTATIONAL SKILLS
Although the calculator is a valuable and welcome tool
to aid accuracy and speed of mathematical calculations,
basic computation knowledge
and skills remain important
for estimation and more
complex mathematics.
They are also important as a manual ‘back-up system’.
Good analysis is critical
to effective teaching.
