Abstract
When I reflect on my many years of teaching mathematics, one of the most enjoyable and fruitful ideas for calculator use came from an article that appeared more than twenty-five years ago (Judd 1976). It gave suggestions for using the constant feature of a simple calculator to enhance mathematics learning. I have used Judd's idea successfully in many classrooms at grades levels ranging from kindergarten through twelfth grade. This article revisits the constant feature for four-function calculators and extends it for use with graphing calculators and computer algebra systems (CASs) for a broad range of topics.
