Resumen | The most important way to promote sustainable living is through education and awareness-raising by disseminating information through different media. International organizations and NGOs have proposed several solutions. One of these is the AWorld, a mobile app that provides clear and accurate information from reliable sources. This app seeks to change its users’ habits and mindset to save the planet through its multiple functionalities. However, could be considered AWorld an educational mobile app for promoting sustainable living in university students? This paper reports the results of the pedagogical and user interface usability evaluation of the AWorld. Twenty-five experts conducted the assessment. They evaluated the app through a questionnaire to value the quality of mobile learning apps. Results indicate that the AWorld app could be considered a potential resource to learn and commit to leading sustainable, healthy lifestyles and address problems such as climate change in higher education environments. |
