The dual purpose of this article is, on the one hand, to highlight the potential of cooperative learning in the teaching of Mathematics and, secondly, to describe some experiences in which this methodology has been implemented by teachers in these matters. With this aim, a large number of journal articles written in Spanish describing research and educational experiences in different educational stages have been revised. To our knowledge, this is the first comprehensive review of articles written in Spanish that analyse the use of cooperative learning in Mathematics. In light of these investigations, it is concluded that cooperative learning is appropriate for teaching Mathematics because it promotes the acquisition of competencies and improves academic performance of students, regardless of the educational level and subject matter.
