Improving mathematics education: interactive techniques to improve student understanding and performance in Basic Education

Abstract

This article explores the use of interactive techniques such as social technology in teaching basic mathematics, aiming to improve students' skills. Initially, we highlight the need to improve mathematics teaching in public schools and low-performing communities, emphasizing interactive techniques as inclusive and accessible tools. The study evaluates the effectiveness of these methodologies in optimizing mathematical learning and students' social development. We reviewed the literature on interactive education and social technology, identifying gaps that this study seeks to fill. We describe the application of interactive techniques in the classroom and data collection and analysis methods, focusing on educational and social impact. The results show a significant increase in the understanding of mathematical concepts, improving students' academic performance and motivation. We compare our findings to previous studies, discussing social and educational implications and acknowledging the study's limitations. We conclude that interactive techniques are effective in improving mathematical learning and promoting inclusion and educational equity, recommending their sustainable integration into the school curriculum. Future research is also suggested to further explore the potential of these techniques as tools for social transformation.
