Abstract

Mathematics education faces challenges related to the abstraction of concepts and the lack of connection to real-life contexts. Approaches such as Ausubel's meaningful learning theory and active methodologies have proven effective in fostering greater engagement and student protagonism. These practices, enhanced by digital technologies, facilitate the understanding of abstract concepts and make learning more contextualized and dynamic. This article reviews studies published between 2019 and 2024, analyzing the impact of these approaches on mathematics education. The results indicate that active methodologies, such as Flipped Classroom and Problem-Based Learning, promote higher engagement, autonomy, and critical thinking skills, despite challenges related to infrastructure and teacher training. It is concluded that these practices represent a promising path toward more meaningful mathematics education, aligned with the challenges of the 21st century.
