Abstract:

The use of audiovisual media and the increasing internet coverage has generated an exponential increment in the use of technological devices inside and outside the school environment. Nowadays technological devices such as laptops, tablets and smartphones have led to new forms of interaction both social as academic and they have generated new dynamics in interpersonal, labor and cultural relations.

Technological devices have substantially redefined the ways of learning. In fact, the ways to learn today are not equal to five or ten years ago, probably it will not be the same in others five years and this. Because the human mind is characterized by his plasticity in relation with the environment, which demand him different needs, requirements and challenges that motivate to change or acquire new study habits. The technology provides a framework of possibilities for those changes or acquisitions.

This paper is a result of a documentary research about the relation between students’ study habits and the Information and Communication Technology (ICT). Researches proposed relationships between study habits and ICT, debate between those who consider ICT beneficial for the study and researches that consider ICT distracting for it.
