Research highlights the importance of expanding studies that allow to support and guide teachers' decision making in the teaching of algebraic expressions. In this sense, the objective of this literature review was to characterize the strategies that have been designed for teaching algebraic expressions in secondary education and their respective theoretical foundations. For this purpose, 22 papers published during the last 10 years (2010-2020) were analyzed, grouped into two categories: technological resources used in teaching strategies for teaching algebraic expressions in secondary education and theoretical foundations of teaching strategies for teaching algebraic expressions in secondary education. Among the conclusions, it is reported the need to deepen around the different resources, especially with respect to technological resources because, although they are booming, they are identified as limited mainly to the use of software.
