AVALIAÇÃO DO IMPACTO DA TECNOLOGIA NO DESEMPENHO E MOTIVAÇÃO DE ALUNOS EM MATEMÁTICA: MÉTRICAS

This study investigated the impact of technology on student performance and motivation in Mathematics, focusing on the metrics used to assess these effects. The problem addressed was the lack of clear understanding of how technologies simultaneously influence student academic performance and motivation, especially in the context of Mathematics teaching. The overall objective was to assess how technologies affect student performance and motivation, exploring the metrics applied in these studies. The methodology adopted was a literature review, using academic sources that address the use of technologies in teaching, performance and motivation assessment metrics, and the effects of these tools on Mathematics learning. The results indicated that the use of technologies, such as digital platforms and educational software, has a positive impact on student performance, with personalized teaching being a fundamental factor. In addition, technological tools also increased student motivation when these technologies were applied in an interactive and practical way. However, the metrics used to assess these impacts presented limitations, such as the difficulty of measuring subjective aspects of motivation. The final considerations suggest that further research be conducted to explore the individual variables that may affect the effectiveness of technology in teaching Mathematics and to improve practices for assessing the impact of technology.
