| Descripción: | Learning with technology has required the development of new abilities to teach and build knowledge. In addition, the introduction of mobile devices as a teaching tool has provided an unprecedented freedom and flexibility, which has revolutionized the educational practices of the 21st century. In this context, this qualitative study shows the results of implementing m-learning strategies in a virtual learning environment, with the aim of analyzing the process of development of digital abilities to implement strategies linked to the use of mobile technology in a distance course. In addition, it sought to determine if it is possible to increase the student’s motivation by integrating interactive learning activities called storylines with the Sharable Content Object Reference Model (SCORM) educational tool. Therefore, the question that guided the investigation was: How do m-learning strategies develop digital literacy in a distance education course? The results show that: a) digital literacy is developed by including teaching resources related to mobile technology, based on educational theories; b) the use of mobile devices supports teaching strategies that promote the development of digital skills; c) the SCORM technology can enhance students motivation, to support the virtual educational process graphically and interactive. |
