Abstract

This chapter presents the results of research that aims to analyze the characteristics of the youth of the Net Generation that can promote learning when using mobile devices. The study was conducted in two campuses of a Mexican university in order to provide useful information for those who work with Mobile Learning. The results showed that characteristics such as communication, teamwork, decision making, positive attitudes towards technology, self-learning and collaborative work of the young Net are the ones that can be predominantly exploited to promote learning when developing Mobile Learning resources to be fully used by students with wireless mobile devices applications.
