Abstract

The objective of this mixed research is to analyze the teachers' perception about the use of the mobile devices during the teaching-learning process. The sample is 58 teachers from the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM) who completed the Classroom of the Future 2020 course. The results of the linear regression indicate that the creation of new educational spaces through the mobile devices positively influences the performance of the activities inside and outside the classroom. Finally, mobile devices are substantially changing the way of teaching and learning in the 21st century.
