Utilizing Video Resources in Undergraduate Mathematics Classes: A Systematic Review Research Synthesis
Page: 457
The increased use of educational technology has raised questions about technology equity in mathematics education research and pedagogy. This paper provides a subset of findings from a larger systematic review, which aims to investigate literature on equity and personal device use in undergraduate mathematics courses from 2009-2023. For the systematic review, literature was searched and screened for information on personal device access, utilization, and outcomes. This paper reports on the subset of findings specific to the utilization of video resources in mathematics classes. Through the synthesis process variable information regarding student outcomes and student perceptions of use was pulled from 82 studies. Findings suggest that the use of video resources correlates to either higher academic outcomes or no difference in academic outcomes. Additionally, student perceptions suggest that video resources can afford an equitable educational experience in a variety of ways, but elements of distraction and communication can serve as limitations.
