Abstract

The present article aims to identify the performance and mathematical thinking of students using technology applications, point out the technological tools appropriate to aid the teaching of mathematics, seeking the use of virtual programs, cellphones, tablets e notebooks, in addition to investigate the difficulties encountered in learning. For this, we conducted bibliographic study of many scholars as Moran (2007) Demo (1993), Tajra (2001) and Paiva (2008) and a field survey in State College Dr. Ives Orlando Lopes da Silva, with students 1st year of high school. The uses of such tools can develop in students a more active and joyful participation in the school environment , taking into account the handling of these devices make students feel more familiar in school, improving the quality of teaching and learning. However, these tools require follow-up and care on the part of the teacher, so that their handling be applied correctly and effectively in the development of the discipline.
