Abstract

A documentary review was conducted on the production and publication of research papers related to ICT, Learning, and Mathematics. The purpose of the bibliometric analysis in this document was to understand the main characteristics of publications registered in the Scopus database from 2018-2023 by Latin American institutions, identifying 46 publications. The data was organized into graphs and figures, categorizing information by Year of Publication, Country of Origin, Area of Knowledge, and Type of Publication. Following this, a qualitative analysis referenced various authors' positions on the topic. Key findings revealed that Ecuador, with 11 publications, was the Latin American country with the highest scientific production attributed to authors affiliated with its institutions. The Area of Knowledge contributing most to the study of the impact of information and communication technologies on learning in mathematics was Social Sciences, with 27 published documents. The most frequently used Publication Type was Journal Articles, comprising 52% of the total scientific production during the specified period.
