Abstract

Nowadays people use mobile devices in different ways to make a profit. In this paper we present a literature review to know the use of the mobile devices as a learning tool, the factors that influence their use, and the advantages and disadvantages of the use of mobile applications that strengthen learning. Researchers seek to dispel doubts about the possibility of choosing mobile devices as tools for learning. As a result of this study it was found that the factors that influence the adoption of these tools are relevant, the advantages are really beneficial, and that students' academic performance can increase relatively.
