SONEGO, Anna Helena Silveira  and  BEHAR, Patricia Alejandra. M-learning: the use of mobile devices by a connected generation. Educação. Porto Alegre [online]. 2019, vol.42, n.3, pp.514-524.  Epub Feb 10, 2020. ISSN 1981-2582.  https://doi.org/10.15448/1981-2582.2019.3.32203.

This article aims to analyze the construction of educational applications in order to assist in the development of m-learning. This modality arose from the need to plan and implement the critical use of mobile devices in education, mainly by a networked generation. The methodology adopted was a qualitative and quantitative approach, of the case study type, with undergraduate students from a public university. In the data collection, two instruments were made available: the participant observation and the questionnaire with open and closed questions. The data allowed to verify that the m-learning can contribute significantly in the process of teaching and learning of the students. In this context, we highlight the potential to promote innovations in the school environment, new forms of communication, interaction and possibilities for understanding school content through applications.

Keywords : M-learning; Applications; Generation Connected.
