Smart Pathways for Sustainable Education of Teaching and Learning Mathematics at the Elementary Level in Pakistan: The Post-Humanistic Approach

Post-humanism is a critical philosophical theory that suggests how human potential can be increased primarily through technology. There is a need to identify evidence-based recommendations for the development of key competencies in sustainable education, the goal of which is to live sustainably, according to Brundtland (1987). The existing paper investigates the impact of innovative education on student's learning in the subject of mathematics with digitally assisted resources (Symbolab Calculator, Desmos/GeoGebra, GEMT, PhET Sims, Kahoot, Learn Smart Pakistan) for teaching students of grade 8 in district Lahore, Pakistan. The quasi-experimental design was used to explore the effectiveness of technology-mediated math education on students' learning. The pretest, post-test, and control group design compared imaginative pedagogical approaches and traditional teaching methods. The data analysis was done quantitatively. The purpose was to understand the effect of all innovative tools on students' achievement and to engage/motivate them in the learning process. The study involved quantitative analysis with a sample size of 38 (experimental) and 42 (control) participants to study the phenomenon with post-humanistic thought. The data was examined through SPSS ver. 25, and a t-test was calculated for the comparison. The findings showed that intervention of innovative education tools had a noticeable impact on students' mathematics learning.
