Abstract

This research quantitatively analyzes worldwide university studies on teaching Differential and Integral Calculus, comparing them with the challenging Brazilian context, which historically faces high rates of failure. Following a Systematic Literature Review structure, 122 documents from different databases (Capes, Scopus, Web of Science, and Science Direct) were reviewed. The focus was placed on worldwide teaching methods for differential and integral calculus, with defined filters and inclusion/exclusion criteria for relevance. According to the results, there is a global rise in alternative and active teaching and learning methods usage. Thus, technological advancements in calculus education through software and group work are highlighted as other means to establish a more student-centric and achievement-oriented learning process. Despite the global progress in teaching calculus, the comparison with Brazil reveals the need to enhance teaching methodologies in national institutions, given the limited number of published studies exploring alternative teaching approaches.
