Computer-Based Math is an educational project started by Conrad Wolfram in 2010[1][2][3][4] to promote the idea that routine mathematical calculations should be done with a computer.
[7] Wolfram contends that this approach is fundamentally different from most of the use of Computers in the classroom (or Computer-based mathematics education),[8] whose role is to help to teach students to perform hand calculations, rather than to perform those computations and is also distinct from delivery tools such as E-learning systems.
In 2010 the website www.computerbasedmath.org was set up to start developing a new curriculum and interactive digital learning materials to support it.
In February 2013, Estonia announced that it would be piloting a Computer-Based Math developed statistics course[9][10][11] in cooperation with the University of Tartu.
[14] Examples of calculations that should be done with a computer include arithmetical operations such as long division or integration techniques such as trigonometric substitution.
