Are they STILL making students buy these pieces of crap?

Math teacher here. Yes. It drives me nuts.

That's absurd, like why not make them buy a $120 abacus while they're at it

The reasoning is that they are feature rich while not being able to connect to the internet. The frustrating thing is the price. I direct my students to search the used market.
