Computers not used properly, school study says 

by Jay Mathews 
The Washington Post 

Quoted:

the ineffective but widespread use of computers for 
repetitive math drills, instead of simulations and 
real-life applications of math concepts, computer 
uses that seem to improve math scores. 



What do you consider math drills? I'm not familiar with the term.

Is "number crunching" "math drills"?

What is "number crunching"?
