This study analyzes the impact of interactive technologies on the motivation and engagement of university students in online courses. Through a systematic literature review and a comparative analysis of existing technologies, 64 articles published between 2020 and 2024 were examined. The results reveal a significant increase in student motivation (23%) and knowledge retention (31%) with the use of these tools. Augmented reality stands out with a mean effect size of 0.67 on academic performance. The bibliometric analysis shows a concentration of research in countries such as Spain, Colombia and China, suggesting the need for more diverse studies. Challenges such as the digital divide and lack of teacher training were identified, with 42% of teachers reporting difficulties in implementation. The findings underline the transformative potential of interactive technologies in online higher education, but emphasize the importance of a holistic approach that considers technical, pedagogical and socioeconomic aspects. It is recommended to invest in teacher professional development, promote equitable access policies and encourage research in diverse educational contexts to maximize the benefits of these technologies
