Abstract

The purpose of this article is to analyze the characteristics of ubiquitous education platforms in the higher education system and then try to measure the level of acceptance of this type of technological environment in real contexts. For this, the research question is posed: What is the degree of acceptance of a ubiquitous learning environment in the actors of higher education institutions? Methodologically, several articles are searched, analyzed and selected to establish the theoretical basis and many others for a statistical study, based on the results of experimental work and trying to empirically answer the question posed, for this a meta-analysis of the results of seven articles that meet the established requirements is worked on; This paper concludes that it is necessary to broaden the empirical conditions to achieve convincing results on the level of acceptance of ubiquitous learning environments, all this, beyond the fact that the reviewed literature always validates the need to use them.
