The Role of ICT in Teaching and Learning Mathematics at College of Education: A Systematic Review

Integrating ICT in education has become increasingly popular. This systematic literature review explores the role of ICT in teaching and learning mathematics at the College of Education level. A comprehensive search was conducted using various academic databases, resulting in a final sample of 27 studies that met the inclusion criteria. The findings indicate that the use of ICT in mathematics education has positively impacted teaching and learning. The studies reviewed reported improved student engagement, motivation, and achievement in mathematics, as well as increased teacher effectiveness and confidence in their ability to teach mathematics. Regarding specific ICT tools and strategies, the studies reviewed suggest that interactive whiteboards, educational software, and online resources effectively enhance teaching and learning mathematics. However, the effective integration of ICT requires adequate infrastructure, professional development opportunities, and teacher support. This review highlights the potential benefits of integrating ICT into mathematics education at the College of Education level. Further research is to be conducted to investigate the most effective strategies for integrating ICT in mathematics education and to address the challenges associated with ICT implementation in educational settings.
