Technological evolution has led to many changes at both professional and academic levels. The inclusion of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) has caused dizzying changes in the different contexts of life (educational, professional, social). More and more applications are being downloaded by users to their mobile devices, both for entertainment and training. For this reason, this study is based on the need to assess the knowledge and attitude of university students towards downloading existing educational applications. In this way, the use and frequency of these tools in the teaching-learning process of the students will be analyzed. In order to carry out this study, the quantitative methodology has been taken into consideration with the collection of data with a sample conformed by a total of 278 students of Higher Education between Spain and the Czech Republic. For this purpose, a survey has been prepared as an instrument of analysis, which has been validated by experts in the field. Among the most outstanding results, it can be seen that in both countries, students download educational apps to a greater or lesser degree, according to their interest and subject matter. Likewise, there is a lack of competences and skills in the use of these new technologies as a training complement. Based on this, we propose the continuous training of students and teachers in the knowledge and pedagogical use of ICT in general and educational apps in particular.

La LOE establece la exigencia de una formación pedagógica y didáctica para el profesorado técnico de Formación Profesional. Respondiendo a esta necesidad y, a través de un convenio entre la Consellería de Educación y la USC, se inicia un Curso de Especialización que da respuesta a esta exigencia educativa, profesional y social. Este trabajo, de corte cuantitativo, con el cuestionario como instrumento de recogida de información, se plantea como objetivo conocer la contribución que ha tenido la materia de Prácticum en la formación del alumnado del Curso de Especialización. Participan un total de 55 docentes en formación inicial (75,6% del total), hombres en su mayor parte y con experiencia profesional. Sus manifestaciones permiten afirmar que existe una visión muy positiva del Prácticum y una percepción elevada del desarrollo competencial. Como conclusión más destacada, se señala la alta contribución del Prácticum a un mejor conocimiento del tejido empresarial de referencia
