Abstract

The development of the digital age has revolutionized every aspect of human life, including the field of education. This qualitative study examines the impact of integrating digital technologies into primary school mathematics teaching in China. Through interviews with different primary school mathematics teachers, the study reveals the advantages and challenges of using digital technologies in primary school mathematics classroom teaching. The study highlighted the advantages of digital technologies in stimulating primary school students’ interest in mathematics learning, optimizing classroom organization and updating teaching methods. It also mentions the potential pitfalls associated with the use of digital technologies. when digital technologies are not used wisely in primary math lessons, students not only ignore the original content of the classroom, but also lack of effective communication between teachers and students. Overall, the content of this study will provide assistance for the application of digital technology in Chinese primary mathematics teaching and further promote the modernization of teaching mathematics in Chinese primary school.
