By Isaura Ramírez Brenes The Tecnológico of Costa Rica has improved its teaching-learning practices thanks to the implementation of TED Digital Learning Activities Manager, an alternative way to combine games while learning. With letter soup, crossword puzzles, word ordering and memory games, classrooms are enhanced by a wider array of blended learning activities through the capabilities of this incredible learning tool. Nuria Figueroa, a Differential and Integral Calculus professor, has reported great success in using the tool in and out of her class. Along with the software, the university gave her 40 tablets so her students could take advantage of the technology. The university's equity policy made this gift available to all without making a distinction between those who are and are not able to afford it. Students always complain that math courses are abstract and difficult to understand. This is why professor Figueroa highlighted in her article the reasoning behind the School of Mathematics adopting this tool as a whole. The department also acquired a set of digital supports such as Geogebra, Geometry (that uses augmented reality to learn), Aurasma, Socrative, and Kahoot, as well as other software apps so that the students employ a more effective learning process.
