Abstract

Abstract: This thesis focuses on the implementation of the technological tool Microsoft Maths Solver as a teaching tool for teaching first-degree equations to tenth-year students of higher basic education. This research was conducted in Quito. The study, using qualitative and quantitative approaches, was conducted with the same group of students. Most, if not all, were unfamiliar with the application, which is beneficial because it allows for a better evaluation of the results. Data was collected using techniques such as analysis and interviews. Data were analyzed using statistics and nonparametric tests, resulting in evidence of changes in the academic performance of students who used the application. The discussion focused on the importance of using technological resources in the educational process, especially in the area of ​​mathematics, highlighting the integration of technological resources into the classroom.
