Popis: Technological classrooms are pedagogical tools focus students' learning on specific topics without being heavily reliant upon TICs. Our purpose in this paper is to apply an interactive classroom methodology that allows the use of social networks, as well as cell phone software technology. The aim is to make technology tools into pedagogical ones which improve the teaching- learning process. The methodology was applied at master's level classrooms. There is interaction, improvement and an increase in knowledge about the topic that is being studied using this technique. Both connectivity and learning strategies can be used to obtain a better performance of the students and ensure full use of the class. This study is a contribution to the first test of combining technology in a multimodal classroom. It is a proposal that is currently under evaluation. However, conclusions and future works show that pedagogical technology when applied correctly in a classroom can work effectively.
