DZIB MOO, Doris Laury Beatriz. The Influence of the Smartphone on the Academic Performance of University Students in the New Normality: The Case of Universidad Juárez Autónoma de Tabasco. RIDE. Rev. Iberoam. Investig. Desarro. Educ [online]. 2022, vol.12, n.24, e034.  Epub 23-Mayo-2022. ISSN 2007-7467.  https://doi.org/10.23913/ride.v12i24.1178.

This research was carried out during online classes in the context of the new normality to know the influence of the smartphone on the academic performance of students at the Universidad Juárez Autónoma de Tabasco (UJAT). And precisely the objective was to identify the uses that students give to the smartphone, specifically the sixth semester students of the Bachelor of Science in Education (January-June 2021). The method was quantitative cut. Of the universe of 270 students of the degree in question, 30 were the ones who formed the study sample. The instrument used was a survey of 10 closed questions with a Likert-type scale. Among the results obtained, it stands out that 93 % of the participants reported that they have a smartphone, however, they use it to be on social networks; only 6.67 % use it to perform their academic tasks. It also highlights that most of the sample, 40 %, spend 8-10 hours on this device. This despite the fact that 73 % of students consider that using the phone for a long time can affect their health. In conclusion, the smartphone is used irresponsibly, since most of the time is dedicated to social networks and the least as a pedagogical tool. With this data, decisions can be made that help educate students about how the smartphone can contribute to their professional training.
