Resumo:
Technological progress has become a transforming agent and key support in the development of activities in different spheres of society, specifically the advancement, dissemination, and adoption of mobile devices to support educational dynamics at a global level. These technologies have become important instruments to advance in complex circumstances such as the confinement due to the COVID 19 pandemic that has caused the closure of educational institutions and student desertion. Considering the importance of these resources, this research aims to identify the factors that influence the use of M-Learning tools among higher education students in developing countries. This study with a quantitative approach is carried out by applying 6530 surveys to students from different programs in different regions of Peru. Among the main findings is that Subjective Norms, Perceived Behavioral Control, and Attitudes condition the intentionality of using Mobile Learning. Finally, it is concluded that teacher preparation, perceived usefulness of use, and self-management of learning are critical factors that determine the adoption of M-Learning resources among higher education students in developing countries, where infrastructure, access to connectivity, and equipment must be improved to encourage interactive educational processes and better learning experiences.
