Abstract: Math is the backbone of any field. Still its a night mare for many. Recent survey proves that many students become dropouts from their higher education due to math courses. ICT is an enchanted word in the contemporary educational environment. It made the learning process more entertaining and almost made the knowledge loss negligible. Adopting the ICT in math courses are still in the infant level. Hence its a challenge placed in front of the IT and academic professionals teaching math to make a suitable ICT tools for math courses to make the learning an amusing experience. In this paper we have highlighted three main concepts which make the math classes in a fascinating way. The first method is introducing revolutionary hybrid ebooks which make the reading with both audio and video facilities. The second method is facilitating the flip class room so that student may have anywhere-anytime learning experience. Finally the recent trends in m-learning are using apps for math courses. We have highlighted the improvement showed by the students based on the survey conducted with two groups of students with m-learning tools and without m-learning tools. Even though there are good improvements showed by the students, we the researchers feel that few more improvements are required in these methodologies. The suggestions for the same are made in the recommendations and conclusion section.
