AB  - Poor performance in Engineering Mathematics is classified as a global issue as educators both locally
and internationally faced this scenario. Poor learning environment and class coordination, poor prior knowledge
of Mathematics are some of the causes for poor performance in Engineering Mathematics. Thus, to overcome
this issue, some recent researchers has incorporated usage of software in learning Engineering Mathematics.
Thus, the objective of this study is to review in detail on the researchers who has used software in Linear
algebra and differential equation subjects. Maple was used extensively in teaching of Linear algebra. Besides,
MATLAB is another software used to teach Linear algebra. Software namely, MATLAB, CoNum, Maple,
Maxima and Mathematica are used to teach differential equation subject. Incorporating software boost
student’s interest in learning Engineering Mathematics, visualize abstract concept, improved understanding
of Engineering Mathematics, helped to validate solutions and helped students in achieving better grades.
Incorporating software in Engineering Mathematics is a substitution of traditional teaching method. Teaching
via. software also overcome poor performance of Engineering Mathematics students.
