“…Por otro lado, el uso de apps se ha incrementado en el área de la educación, en tanto se plantea que es una forma de acercar los contenidos de aprendizaje al mundo digital de los estudiantes (Frawley, 2014). Además, favorece que se pueda tener acceso al contenido en cualquier lugar y tiempo (Squire, 2009).…”

Pese a la urgencia del desarrollo del pensamiento crítico en un contexto mediado digitalmente e inundado de noticias falsas, los resultados de este constructo son bajos a escala internacional. Esta investigación busca aportar en esta área a partir del diseño y pilotaje de una app cuyo objetivo es desarrollar el pensamiento crítico en estudiantes de primer ciclo de universidad. Se muestra el proceso de diseño y pilotaje, así como los resultados de uso en un curso de estudiantes de primer año de universidad. Los datos se analizaron cuantitativa y cualitativamente mediante un software de análisis de corpus, el sistema de ideación del lenguaje y una rúbrica de evaluación de textos. Los datos sugieren que la app puede contribuir al desarrollo del pensamiento crítico a través de la modelación de esta habilidad. Se destacan aspectos positivos en la producción de textos argumentativos mediados por la app, junto con sugerencias de mejora.

“…This is primarily due to their ‘participatory’ promise of providing opportunities for people who have experienced marginalisation from a mainstream culture to tell their stories, identify and express their own needs and develop new strategies to overcome challenges (Alexandra, 2008; Fiddian-Green et al, 2017; Gifford and Wilding, 2013; Lenette et al, 2015). While aligned with other participatory research methods such as ‘photovoice’, ‘participatory media’ and ‘citizens media’ (Spurgeon, 2015; Spurgeon and Edmond, 2015; Wang, 2006), and making use of relatively easy to access digital technologies such as mobile phones for creating audio and video images (Frawley and Dyson, 2014; Guse et al, 2013; Matthews, 2014), through digital storytelling individuals are supported to create unique, short stories and messages about their own life experiences (Educause Learning Initiative, 2007; Poletti, 2011).…”

Objective: Digital storytelling and other methods of self-expression and autobiography have become an increasingly important tool for those working with young people, including those from migrant, refugee or other ‘culturally diverse’ backgrounds. A structured scoping review was undertaken to better understand the potential value and challenges of using digital stories to promote the health and well-being of these diverse groups of young people and to identify key knowledge gaps. Design: The review process comprised a systematic search of the literature and strategic consultations with professionals working with young people in the area of sexual and reproductive health promotion and care. A descriptive-analytic method was used to collate and synthesise the literature and apply narrative and thematic analyses. Results: In total, 28 papers were deemed eligible for inclusion. Findings are presented as two analyses: what is known from the literature and key knowledge gaps. Identified themes included the use of digital stories as social activism and as research intervention, recognition of digital stories as complex terrain and recommendations for good practice. Three key gaps of particular relevance to our research aims were identified. These were (1) the lack of digital stories on sexual health and relationships by ‘culturally diverse’ young people in Australia, (2) the need for discussion of the ethical considerations of using digital storytelling and related methods in sexual health fields and (3) the value of exploring opportunities to employ digital methods as self-representation and autobiography to generate new knowledge and build organisational capacity. Conclusion: As confirmed in discussions with professionals working in the youth, migrant and sexual health sectors, the literature highlighted the many potential applications of digital storytelling to promoting the sexual health and well-being of young people from diverse backgrounds. Additional research is required to understand the particular ethical and contextual issues shaping, and at times constraining, this engagement in specific cultural contexts.

Mobile and participatory cultures have led to widespread change in the way we communicate; emphasizing user generated content and digital multimedia. In this environment, informal learning may occur through digital and networked activities, with literacy no longer limited to alphabetic and character-based texts. This article explores adult learners' new literacies within the context of a digital mobile storytelling project. A qualitative approach is used to explore the artifacts and practices of nine adult participants who comprise the study. Participants created a range of fiction, non-fiction, poetry and diary-style content in a variety of modes and media. Outcomes from content analysis, interview and survey methods depict mobile digital literacies as characteristically situated, experiential and multimodal. The mobile and participatory nature of this project was catalytic to participants' imaginative re-interpretation of the world around them as sources for meaning making and transformation. This paper contributes a case example of mobile learning with adults in a community setting.
