Summary/Abstract: With this study, it is aimed to improve the calculation skills of visually impaired children in elementary grades. In this context, it is expected that mathematical calculation skills will gain meaning and target behaviours will be changed with the help of technology for visually impaired children. The study group of the study consists of 78 primary school students who continue to study in voluntary primary school classes. The research was conducted in the fall academic year of 2021–2022. In the study, elementary school students were given training on calculations in a 4-week classroom environment in order to gain calculation and mathematical skills. In the study, the ‘calculation skills’ measurement tool was used to collect data. The measurement tool used in the study was delivered to primary school students with the help of their families and collected. The analysis of the data was carried out using the SPSS programme; frequency analysis was carried out using the t-test; and the results obtained were added to the study accompanied by tables. As a result of the research, it was found that the calculation and mathematics skills of primary school students have a positive effect on education, as well as on motivation in their studies.
