The connection between technology and math can be a major influence on students learning and performance in math classes. Technology that is thoughtful can be utilized to engage students, offer personalized experiences, and help different learners.
Software and hardware for maths such as spreadsheets, graphing calculators and dynamic geometry environments enable students to engage with math in a visually appealing, interactive, and engaging way. They can perform calculations quickly and efficiently, which would take a lot of time or effort using traditional pencil and paper methods. The software and hardware allow students to gain a greater understanding of concepts through visualizing the processes involved. They can also experiment with their understanding through trial and trial and. 2010).
Students who employ ICT to learn math often have positive attitudes toward the subject and demonstrate a greater understanding of math than those who don't. This is due to the fact the technology encourages the students to explore different strategies and methods that they are not likely to try using traditional methods. ICT can also enable students to collaborate with others in ways that would not be possible in a face-toface situation. This allows them to build an online community of students who have the same desires.
There is also evidence that technology can be effective in teaching math when it is used as an instrument to teach other subjects like science and history. Students who utilize ICT in order to understand complex concepts within other subjects often gain an understanding of the subjects, as well as the ability to apply that knowledge to real-world problems.
