Resumo: During recent years, many institutions and universities have started to experiment with mobile learning and facebook through different projects as part of their e-learning methodology, like an oportunity for work with young adults. However, little is known about the perceptions and experiences with design students.In this study, 24 undergraduates completed learning activities for two months, using a smarthphone and the popular social networking site, Facebook. At the end of the term, the students also participated a focus group. The results indicated that students use Facebook as part of their daily routine and they were the creators disseminating content to others. Also the results indicated the first month they spent more time observing content on Facebook than actually posting content. Facebook’s group was used for social interaction, primarily with students and the professor like a complemet to the face to face class. The experience gained and the employment of strategies, can assist with the conceptualization of mobile learning, and show Facebook as a learning environment to support teaching and learning in the design area.

Sin embargo, poco se sabe de las percepciones y experiencias que pueden obtener estudiantes de diseño sobre este tema. En este estudio 24 estudiantes han completado sus actividades de aprendizaje durante dos meses, utilizando un smarthphone y la popular red social Facebook. Al final del plazo, los estudiantes participaron además en un grupo de discusión para expresar sus experiencias. Los resultados indicaron que los estudiantes utilizaron Facebook como parte de su rutina diaria y que fueron creadores de contenido proporcionando estos a otros. Además los resultados indican que durante el primer mes perdieron mucho tiempo observando contenidos propuestos en Facebook, que después comentaron. El grupo en Facebook fue utilizado para la interacción social principalmente con otros estudiantes y el profesor, como un complemento a las sesiones presenciales. Los resultados obtenidos y el empleo de estrategias, puede ayudar a la conceptualización del m-learning y mostrar como Facebook puede funcionar como un entorno de aprendizaje para apoyar la enseñanza y aprendizaje en el área del diseño.UFSCar2011-05-18info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revistageminis.ufscar.br/index.php/geminis/article/view/44Revista GEMInIS; v. 2 n. 1 (2011): Mobilidade: tendências e desafios na era digital; 137-149Revista GEMInIS; Vol. 2 No. 1 (2011): Mobilidade: tendências e desafios na era digital; 137-149Revista GEMInIS; Vol. 2 Núm. 1 (2011): Mobilidade: tendências e desafios na era digital; 137-1492179-1465reponame:Revista GEMInISinstname:Universidade Federal de São Carlos (UFSCAR)instacron:UFSCARporhttps://www.revistageminis.ufscar.br/index.php/geminis/article/view/44/41S.
