“…The response cards consist of a set of quick response (QR) codes that can be printed, where four options are indicated (A, B, C, and D) and the student's number at the top of each orientation. Students only need to look at the question posed by the teacher and orient their card in order to display the option they consider correct at the top of the QR code (Chanialidis, 2019). With the cell phone/smartphone/tablet camera, the teacher takes the readings and collects the students' responses through QR codes.…”

There are<b><i> </i></b>several educational software (ES) used in the classroom environment for the teaching and learning of geometric contents that are part of the Portuguese basic education mathematics program. There are studies that show that the use of this type of artifact has a fundamental role in the behavior of students, raising, among other aspects, a greater motivation for learning mathematics. The aim of this work is to explore and describe implications for the behavior and learning of students in the 7th grade of Portuguese basic education, in face of a pedagogical practice that involves carrying out tasks using ES Plickers, in the theme similarities of the domain geometry and measurement, throughout intervention carried out. The adopted methodology presents characteristics of a quasi-experimental study. The participants were 61 students from three classes of a school in the north of Portugal, followed during eight consecutive classes. A set of tasks using Plickers, tests and a questionnaire survey were used as instruments for data collection. The results point to positive increments, at a behavioral level, as well as in the evolution of learning, in view of the use of this methodology in the classroom.

In the era of 21 st century, technology has replaced the old-style teaching tools like textbooks and blackboard. The digital classroom is now promoted as a new trend in current educational policies. This paper takes a systematic approach to access the students' perceptions on the use of technology in learning English and factors influencing "e-learning". This paper was analysed and synthesised thoroughly with 21 articles chosen from the year 2016 until 2020 from the databases Eric and Google Scholar. Most of the studies used quantitative and mixed method in exploring the students' perception on the use of technology in learning English and factors influencing "elearning". In general, most of the users established the same perception as the technology does help the learning of English language.
