Abstract: This research investigates the problem which are exposed to the
youth of the society, trying to tackle the main investigations at global level of
different researches that allows to evaluate and analyze the elements of
information in the area of communication and its different factors related to
technology which are contradictious in many cases. With this present research
is also sought to determine the critical grade of the young people related to
social topics or if they show indifference about what they are living in the
daily life. These changes are not only supported by a quantitative increase of
the available information and the development of new technologies which are
immediately available for receivers, but it is estimated to be directly related
to all the cultural and have modifications, in other words, transformations
social and cultural it can change on the way of communication.

INTRODUCTION
The incorporation of the present investigative work is short term, which has
as objective the elaboration of a meticulous study with abilities that benefit
the students of the career of social communication, with the respective
fulfillment that authorizes the student to acquire a series of cognitive
conditions that allow them the handling of technological devices that they
offer in the superior establishment.
The purpose of this short-term work is to establish the bases in a competitive
level, in terms of its good use in the social field, used by young people through
electronic media. However, in the university community, technologies have
quickly set a trend in the youth, which arise before the implementation of
encyclopedia as an appropriate didactic resource, mainly in imparting
strategic knowledge in the academic process and the development of
communication skills.
The implementation of electronic devices is considered as a process of
training and technological updating as pedagogical strategies in the learning
process of students in the career of social communication. The
implementation of this research is accurate because it is focused on the
students of the Social Communication career with the objective of instructing
them and approaching a better use of the appropriate use of digital platforms.
The present inquiry focuses on the use of Smartphones in the learning process
of adolescents students of the career of social communication present
technology has achieved the greatest prevalence in adolescents, has increased
the manipulation while advancing the era is globalizing technology, which
creates the function of obtaining electronic devices, in these moments

University of Guayaquil morning part, while technology is becoming
increasingly relevant in the daily lives of individuals.
On the other hand, the excessive use of technological machines has
psychological effects that are also linked to dependence on these devices ,
and interpersonal collaborations have also been damaged by the boom and
growth of the virtual world, and as a result have the potential to expose
inappropriate behavior in the different roles in which adolescents will play.
Technology has become a contribution in educational matters, and at the same
time for the change it produces in the way teenagers have to establish
collaborations with their parents, in addition to the high dangers of exposing
so much information in the technological network, it is necessary to produce
awareness of its measured and not dependent use, it is an instrument that
increases the function of searching for information, generating inventions,
developing new ideas that if they are not taught would lose the relationship
with the real planet giving way to total dependence on electronic devices.
For the execution of the present plan, we wanted the enunciation of questions
associated with the subject to be pertinent and to raise awareness about the
present state of the use of Smartphones in the learning process in the students
of the third semester A1, A2, A3 of the Social Communication career.
It is considered that this research has acquired an important role in our current
society, since a smart cell phone offers us access to personal communication
also by handling multiple devices that collaborate with students' studies and
complementary activities.
Our work exposes the imperious incidence in young people the access to this
device reaching high learning levels in their development as people; taking
into account the changes that society is going through in the last decade,
increasing not only entertainment but also communication producing in
young people a search for identity.

Mass communication exists thanks to the social and economic model that
society has sustained for centuries: capitalism. This has organized and
developed institutions and technologies capable of transmitting the news.
Language is the activity that every person can decode, receiving it from a
medium, the same that must disseminate the information with the appropriate
and updated technological tools to ensure successful communication. The
language transmitted is meaningful and beneficial when it is shared by
community beings. Barros, C., & Turpo, O. (2017), (Garcia, 2012, 31)
However, when language is transmitted from an entity or medium, the listener
is influenced by the information it provides. The listener, in this context a
student, who receives information from a medium, is attracted by the
conglomerate of ideas that circulate there; this can mean a distraction, which
does not allow full dedication and participation in the act of learning (Veloz,
2014,8).
This divides face-to-face communication from online communication, since
in the interaction between individuals without any means other than oral
communication, it enables the reading of gestures that indicate the
truthfulness of the messenger. While online communication loses reliability
due to the loss of this same reading. (Herrero, Et Al, 2009,11)
Adolescence is the stage in which the young person continually reconstructs
his personality through stimuli he encounters in his environment. The
introduction of a technological device is part of the construction of their
identity.
As Perez (2013) writes about the incidence of Smartphones:
"The introduction of smartphones is changing the behavior of users, which is
a clear social change. Throughout history, technology has modified countless
behaviors. It has caused a delocalization of access to content, multi-device

access has created a new framework of relationship between the internet and
the citizen-consumer." (p.18)
The conventional use of the cell phone for basic communication, moved to an
innovative position as intercommunication and application of advanced
programs for education. It shortens the time of language reception through
the Internet. Therefore, the search is currently focused on strategies for the
integration of ICTs in lesson planning in any educational establishment.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
For the realization of this project we have used, first, the qualitative method:
The analysis of the events, of the individuals involved, as well as the internal
psychology of each one of them, are part of the research process that has been
proposed. Second, a method that is exact in the measurement and delimitation
of the elements of the variables, that is, the quantitative method. Finally,
social phenomena have been investigated through dialectics. By means of this
technique we were allowed to reinforce our inquiry with clear resolutions that
affirms the investigation.
This analysis technique helped us to understand in a simple way the
information that our study objectives possess within their own reality; that is
to say, it allowed us to know the depth of the situation.
This tool allowed us to approach our sample with a specific topic and ask
questions "influence of the use of smartphones on learning" with which we
were able to connect the variables with the indicator of our research.
We used non-probabilistic sampling since this way we chose the number of
67 and from there we used the most specific percentage of members.
Non-probability sampling was used, so we chose 50 people.

RESULTS
This establishes, type of studies in the specific sector detect a group of
changing get results based on scientific and philosophical information on the
people of a structural approach involved in the levels and ways the changing
studied for all the goals of this inquiry in the predominance of the use of smart
phone phones in the learning process in adolescents.
Technology has made a strong entry into the current education-learning
model to improve teaching and is now an essential part of it. The use of
technology in educational institutions increases the interest of students in
academic occupations and helps to develop learning.
The use of technology in education not only brings benefits to the students,
making them much more efficient with the technological sets; technology
helps to improve their work and makes their work more attractive, 18%
considered that the problem stems from the harmful use of the Internet. Many
adolescents do not have the possibility of being even for a short time without
the cell phone, sometimes they suffer disappointment at the moment that the
electronic device is downloaded; also, the course of technologies is harmful
and that these addictions in most cases tend to harm the family nucleus and
the emotional equality of the subject.
Technology produces relationships among students and benefits group work,
as well as estimates that the connection to the Internet and mobile devices
both in the classroom and outside it gave a fundamental turn in teaching,
providing various benefits. He states that the use of technological tools
motivates consequently, the contents are assimilated faster.
CONCLUSIONS
Access to technology, in most cases, is used for distraction and entertainment
in the educational environment. Digital diversity forces the development of

policies and strategies adjusted to people according to gender, age, cultural
identity, geographic origin or any other personal characteristic. As a result of
the indiscriminate use of cell phones or other technologies, a lifestyle of social
exclusion of the individual is created. By simply being dependent on a
technological device, an environment of slavery is produced in educational
institutions. The research design of this thesis is non-experimental
transactional-descriptive in which we sought to study the historical
background of the analysis of the influence of the use of Smartphone in a
sample and the solution to the problem, addressed in the research study.
