The connection between maths and technologies has an impact on students ability to comprehend and perform. Technology that is well-thought out can be used to engage students, provide personalized experiences, and aid diverse learners.
Mathematical software and hardware, such as graphing calculators, spreadsheets, and dynamic geometry environments allow students to explore mathematics in a dynamic, engaging and visually appealing way. It allows them to do calculations quickly and efficiently which would take a lot of time or effort with traditional pencil-and-paper methods. The software and hardware help students develop deeper understanding of concepts by helping them understand the processes involved and also allowing them to experiment with their understanding of mathematical principles through trial and trial and (Jeng and colleagues. 2010).
Students who utilize ICT for math exhibit an optimistic attitude toward the subject, and they demonstrate a greater knowledge of mathematics. This is due to the fact that ICT encourages students to try out innovative strategies and approaches which they would be less likely to attempt using traditional tools. Additionally to that, the ICT can allow students to collaborate in ways that are not possible in a face to meeting setting, and this lets them develop an environment of friendship with other students eager to learn the same subjects.
There is also evidence that technology can be effective in teaching math when used as an instrument to teach other subjects, including science and history. When students utilize ICT to help them comprehend complex concepts in other subjects, they typically have a greater appreciation of those subjects as well as the ability to apply their knowledge to real-world problems.
