THE USE OF SMARTPHONE AS A DIDACTIC RESOURCE FOR DIMINING ANXIETY TO MATEMATICS

Abstract

This article brings a qualitative bibliographical research with the objective of identifying the use of the smartphone as a classroom instrument used as a facilitator in math classes, stressing that the smartphone without an appropriate application or lack of planning will not have efficiency. It is important to remember that mathematics classes without the use of situations problems or contextualizations that relate the contents to the day to day of the students will hardly arouse students' interest in mathematics and consequently will also make learning difficult, and this is one of the causes of anxiety the math. In this sense, the use of the technological and didactic resource smartphone can become important because it is part of the reality of the vast majority of students, and these can usefully use different contexts of daily life intrinsically linked to the smartphone by means of games to reduce the picture from anxiety to mathematics having successes in the process of teaching mathematics learning.
