Abstract

Social networks, along with the emergence of new audiovisual formats and platforms, have transformed the way in which information is consumed. During the pandemic, TikTok became one of the most popular applications among young people, so its use expanded rapidly, thanks to the diversity of content, the variety of visual and sound effects, among other elements.

The objective of this research is to analyze the use of TikTok among university students as an educational tool and determine its usefulness for higher-level students to learn or reinforce the knowledge acquired in the classroom. To this end, a questionnaire was designed based on five dimensions related to its use in the educational field. This questionnaire was answered by 60 students from the Technological University of Chetumal, which made it possible to collect data and obtain conclusions aligned with the objective of the research.

The results obtained demonstrate that TikTok is an application that contributes to the reinforcement of the knowledge acquired in the classroom, so it can become an effective and dynamic teaching tool.
