App Canvas Student

Hello everyone!

I've been reading world trends and there has been a huge growth in the use of Mobile as apps.

We conduct research at our university and note that it is totally the reverse of the trend.

Our students prefer to use a laptop, and at home to study, than their smartphone and the Canvas Student app. This was very interesting and changed the focus of the university moment.

Hi Edgard, How did you determine that students are using the computer more than their phones? We're looking into this ourselves too.  Thanks! -- Linda

Hi Linda!
We conducted a survey with our own students, and one of the questions was about using the Computer x Mobile for studies.

In short, our students choose to study at home and on the computer more than during the day, at leisure, for example, at work or on the subway by cell phone.

We were surprised by the results!

Thank you! That is interesting. When was the survey done? Just wondering

if preferences would change over time, or not...

Linda,

We conducted this research at the end of last year (2019).
