AskMarilyn ByMarilyn vos Savant


Do you think students should be allowed to use calculators when solving math problems?—Misty Covington, Sparks, Md. Absolutely! Calculators don’t do your thinking for you. They just follow your instruc- tions. After middle school, doing rote arithmetical oper- ations by hand is a waste of precious time that could be better spent on learning the mathematical reasoning that underlies what those in- structions should be. Consider the process of


doing a square root by hand. Do you have any un- derstanding of why the steps work? Nope, and why should you? It won’t help you solve problems. You probably don’t even know why the process of doing long division by hand works. You simply follow the steps you’ve memo- rized. Doing that is no bet- ter than pressing calculator buttons in a certain order. Of course, everyone


should know how to do basic math operations for everyday life, and they’re part of younger students’ math foundation. But older students should be using their mental energy under- standing which operations should be performed, not going through the mechani- cal labor of doing no-think calculations by hand.
