This volume traces back the history of interaction between the
"computational" or "algorithmic" aspects of elementary mathematics
and mathematics education throughout ages. More specifically, the
examples of mathematical practices analyzed by the historians of
mathematics and mathematics education who authored the chapters in
the present collection show that the development (and, in some
cases, decline) of counting devices and related computational
practices needs to be considered within a particular context to
which they arguably belonged, namely, the context of mathematics
instruction; in their contributions the authors also explore the
role that the instruments played in formation of didactical
approaches in various mathematical traditions, stretching from
Ancient Mesopotamia to the 20th century Europe and North America.
