Resumen

El uso de aplicaciones móviles y tecnologías digitales ha despertado un interés cada vez mayor en los ámbitos de la educación y el desarrollo infantil; la elección de aplicaciones adecuadas causa incertidumbre ya que no todas cumplen con estándares pedagógicos adecuados. El presente estudio expone un enfoque empírico, basado en el análisis de sentimientos de las reseñas publicadas por los usuarios de las cuatro aplicaciones para el desarrollo de lenguaje más populares en la tienda de Google. El objetivo es encontrar las similitudes y diferencias en cuanto a criterios y percepciones que tienen tanto padres de familia como educadores a la hora de elegir los aplicativos móviles. Para ello, se contó con 8.085 reseñas de padres y la evaluación pedagógica de educadoras de primera infancia. Los resultados muestran que padres y docentes concuerdan en que el diseño y la funcionalidad son importantes, pero difieren en cuanto al contenido educativo y las características técnicas que una aplicación móvil debe tener en el desarrollo del lenguaje. Las implicaciones pedagógicas pueden ser útiles tanto para docentes como para padres de familia.
