Abstract

The digital teaching resources to enhance logical thinking are technological tools designed for learning, such as applications, platforms, games, and simulators. These resources focus on developing reasoning, analysis, problem-solving, and critical thinking skills interactively and practically. The objective was to analyze the effectiveness of digital teaching resources in improving logical thinking in seventh-year students of Basic General Education in the "Cinco de Mayo" Educational Unit. Analytical-synthetic, inductive-deductive, and explanatory methods were used, complemented by statistical data. The results indicate that using digital resources increases motivation and understanding, facilitating the resolution of logical problems autonomously. Likewise, it is observed that these tools allow learning to be adapted to the pace of each student, promoting a participatory and meaningful approach. In conclusion, the implementation of digital resources in mathematics teaching promotes more effective and adaptable learning, standing out as a key strategy to enhance logical-mathematical competencies in diverse educational contexts.
