Abstract

This article is an excerpt for the master's dissertation and aims to perform a literature review about works that use WhatsApp for discursive interaction between mathematics teachers and students in the teaching and learning process, aiming to promote a panorama about the theme in the period from 2019 to 2020. During this period, the educational scenario underwent transformations due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and digital technologies started to be used more and more for the development of educational activities. The results show that the use of mobile technologies can contribute to learning in Mathematics, where students have the possibility to learn anywhere and anytime, given their interests and that WhatsApp allows the creation of a collaborative learning environment, besides bringing teachers and students closer in the educational context.
