The primary aim was to understand how integrating digital tools into math education can reduce students' math anxiety, which negatively affects their performance and long-term engagement with mathematics. The research is set within the broader context of educational technology and its impact on emotional and cognitive learning outcomes, particularly within primary education. A quantitative research approach was adopted, utilizing a structured questionnaire to gather data from primary school teachers on their perceptions of technology integration, challenges in its use, and its potential to reduce math anxiety. Various statistical techniques, such as descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and multiple regression analysis, were used in this study to explore the relationships between key variables. The results indicate that increased Technology Integration significantly reduces math anxiety, while Challenges of Technology Use, such as technical difficulties and lack of training, exacerbate it. Other variables, including the Importance of Technology in Education, Future Expectations, and Impact on Students' Learning, did not significantly affect math anxiety. The study concludes that digital tools can effectively reduce math anxiety, but their success largely depends on addressing teachers' practical challenges in implementing these technologies. It is recommended that educators and policymakers should focus on improving access to training and support for teachers to maximize the benefits of technology in math education. This research contributes to understanding how technology can influence both the emotional and academic aspects of learning. In addition, the finding of this study offers a pathway for creating more supportive and engaging learning environments for students specially in the context of Mathematics subject.84enDigital TechnologyMath AnxietyPrimary EducationTechnology IntegrationEducational TechnologyTeacher PerceptionsEmotional Learning OutcomesCognitive LearningMathematics EducationQuantitative ResearchTeaching of Mathematics in Primary Schools: The Role of Technology in Reducing Maths AnxietyThesis
