Abstract

Today, it is necessary to innovate in the classroom with resources used by digital natives. This innovation must be present as a motivator in classrooms; therefore, to implement it is currently a challenge. The social networks have allowed to the teachers interact with students in a more natural way, using the same language that they use for their activities outside the classroom. In this research, we expect to know if students accept the strategy of Facebook implementation in the classroom, as a tool for teaching-learning process in the university.
