Abstract
This study addresses the application of Learning and Knowledge Technologies (LKTs) in mathematics teaching in higher education, assessing both the benefits and challenges associated with their integration. ICT, as interactive tools and digital resources, have been shown to have a positive impact on the understanding of complex mathematical concepts, enabling dynamic visualisation and promoting students' autonomous learning. However, the effective implementation of these technologies faces barriers related to insufficient teacher training, lack of adequate infrastructure and the reluctance of some educators to adopt them. Despite these difficulties, teachers and students recognise the pedagogical benefits of ICT, especially in terms of improved understanding, motivation and personalisation of learning. The study also reveals that, although the technologies enable students to access complementary resources and collaborate more efficiently, some face adaptation challenges due to their limited familiarity with technological tools. It therefore highlights the importance of providing continuous training for teachers and students, and ensuring adequate technological infrastructure to facilitate access to and effective use of ICT. Finally, it is concluded that, despite the challenges, ICTs have the potential to positively transform mathematics teaching, favouring more dynamic and accessible learning.
