- Abstract
The main objective of this research study is to assess the perception of higher education students in Spain regarding social networks, according to the technologcal training received. Data gathering is attained by applying a quantitative methodology in which the perception of 1360 higher education students is assessed on the usefulness of social networks in improving learning, grades, motivation, content understanding, and overall satisfaction. The platforms examined are YouTube, Instagram, Twitch, TikTok, and Twitter. The results show that YouTube is the social network with the best performance across all factors analyzed. There is also a low introduction to social networks for academic purposes in the classroom. It is concluded that training in technological education is low, but students who do receive training in educational technology have a better perception of social networks utility.
