Abstract(s)

This research sought to assess the applicability of m-learning to Primary Education, since we believe that one of the greatest challenges that Education currently faces is to approach the technological and cultural reality of students since childhood. Therefore, we recognize the pedagogical potential of the use of technology in education, namely by their classroom integration in Primary Education, the context of our research. In an action research setting, we developed digital collaborative writing sessions using a web-based text writing platform. The results showed that the use of technological resources for educational purposes presents advantages in terms of motivation, feedback, concentration, productivity, assessment, reading and writing taste, digital literacy, error exposure and assignment sharing. While some technical and/or usability implementation difficulties were recognized, the positive indicators outweighed the negative ones and are an argument in favor of school’s mediating role of the use of these technological resources, rather than prohibiting them.
