Abstract

This study investigates the use of innovative digital tools in distance education (EAD) for exact sciences, evaluating their impact on learning and the challenges involved. Through a literature analysis, technologies such as interactive virtual environments and adaptive learning systems are mapped. The results show that these tools increase student engagement and understanding, but significant barriers remain, such as limitations in infrastructure and the need for teacher training. The study proposes recommendations aimed at enhancing the understanding of technologies in distance education, contributing to the effectiveness and inclusivity of educational practices.
