It’s Use in education
 In most countries, students use calculators for schoolwork.
 There was some initial resistance to the idea out of fear
that basic arithmetic skills would suffer.
 There remains disagreement about the importance of the
ability to perform calculations "in the head", with some
curricula restricting calculator use until a certain level of
proficiency has been obtained, while others concentrate
more on teaching estimation techniques and problem-
solving.
 Research suggests that inadequate guidance in the use of
calculating tools can restrict the kind of mathematical
thinking that students engage in.

bones
 An abacus created
by John Napier for
calculation.

for multiplication, based on the ancient
numerical scheme known as the Arabian
lattice.
July 28, 201316

July 28, 201317
William Gunter developed a logarithmic rule for
multiplication and division using dividers, which
was the forerunner of the slide rule.
Invented in 1622 by William Oughtred.
Allows multiplication and division operations to be
carried out significantly faster.
People who sent the space shuttle Apollo to the
moon used the
slide rule for
their calculations
which was in
1961.
1623 Calculating Clock
 Invented in 1623 by
Wihelm Schickard.
 Known as the first
mechanical calculator.
 The calculator was
made from cogs and
gears which were

 It was the size of a typewriter.
 It could add, subtract, multiply, and divide to up
to six-digit numbers.
July 28, 201318
1642 - the Pascaline
o Capable of addition,
subtraction was performed
by nines-complement
addition, and multiplication
was performed by repeated
additions and subtractions.
 Invented by Blaise Pascal
 Pascal invented it to reduce his father’s tax work
load.
 Used for taxes in France until 1799 July 28, 201319
1820 - Arithmometer
July 28, 2013
 Inventor: Charles Xavier Thomas de Colmar
 The arithmometer was the first commercially successful
calculating machine to complete all four basic operations —
addition,
subtraction, multiplication and division — according to IBM.
Like Hahn, Thomas also based his calculator on the stepped
drum mechanism of Leibniz.
The machine featured a second
result display for subtraction and
division as well as a multiplication
gear.20
 W.T. Odhner in Sweden independently develops
the pin-wheel calculator, the first of the long
series of Odhner calculators. Since then, many
calculating machines have used the same
principle.

1985: First Graphing
Calculator
Device Name: Casio fx-7000G
Inventor: Casio
A Brief History: The Casio
fx-7000G was developed with
422 bytes of memory and could
store up to ten programs in 10
program slots, according to the
Computing History website. It offered 82 scientific
functions, and its display could toggle between 8 lines of 16
characters each or a 64x96 dot matrix graphical display.
 Interesting Fact: Today’s graphing calculators like the TI-
83 kept the fx-7000G’s display format. July 28, 201337

Functionality
 Photo Credit: Gumtree
 Device Name: Sharp EL-9650
 Inventor: Sharp
 A Brief History: When most
people think of touch devices, they
think of using their fingers, but Sharp broke the mold by
debuting the first stylus-based graphing calculator, according
to Tech Powered Math. Sharp, unfortunately, didn’t find much
success with the model.
 Interesting Fact: The EL-9650 had a slideshow
functionality that allowed teachers to walk through pre-
programmed lessons and formulas on the calculator.
July 28, 201338
2010: First Color Graphing Calculator
Device Name: Casio PRIZM
Inventor: Casio
A Brief History: While the world
of mobile devices quickly moved to
full-color screens in the early 2000s,
it took a while for graphing calculators
to catch up. Casio’s PRIZM calculator,
with its advanced, 216x384 resolution,
full-color display, debuted in late 2010.
Texas Instruments soon followed with its own color
calculator, the TI-NSpire Cx, in early 2011. Students could finally
bid good-bye to the monochrome, low-pixel displays of years past.
 Interesting Fact: The PRIZM allows students to create graphs
over images, which helps them understand the real-world
applications of the work they’re doing on their graphing
calculators. July 28, 201339

  • 37. 1985: First Graphing Calculator Device Name: Casio fx-7000G Inventor: Casio A Brief History: The Casio fx-7000G was developed with 422 bytes of memory and could store up to ten programs in 10 program slots, according to the Computing History website. It offered 82 scientific functions, and its display could toggle between 8 lines of 16 characters each or a 64x96 dot matrix graphical display.  Interesting Fact: Today’s graphing calculators like the TI- 83 kept the fx-7000G’s display format.

  • 39. 2010: First Color Graphing Calculator Device Name: Casio PRIZM Inventor: Casio A Brief History: While the world of mobile devices quickly moved to full-color screens in the early 2000s, it took a while for graphing calculators to catch up. Casio’s PRIZM calculator, with its advanced, 216x384 resolution, full-color display, debuted in late 2010. Texas Instruments soon followed with its own color calculator, the TI-NSpire Cx, in early 2011. Students could finally bid good-bye to the monochrome, low-pixel displays of years past.  Interesting Fact: The PRIZM allows students to create graphs over images, which helps them understand the real-world applications of the work they’re doing on their graphing calculators.
