Each student will be required to buy a calculator. The Math Lab will offer two calculator clinics at the start of the term to help those who need it. In previous years some of the instructors were worried at the prospect of teaching students to use the calculator. It turned out to be a non-issue. Many students will come already knowing how to use the calculator, and they tend to help other students who need it. Encourage anyone who is having trouble to go to the Math Lab to get individual help.

As the term progresses you will be given a few calculator programs to distribute to students by transferring them to each other's calculators.
