Resumen

El impacto de Twitter se percibe de forma contundente en diferentes ámbitos del desempeño profesional y cotidiano. Combinando métodos cuantitativos y cualitativos se analiza cómo los jóvenes universitarios crean contenidos en Twitter desde el entorno académico, y cómo perciben esta actividad. Para ello se conformó una muestra intencional de tres grupos de estudiantes, se recolectó una muestra de 10 291 tuits publicados y se desarrolló un grupo focal por cada grupo universitario. Entre otros aspectos, el trabajo evidencia que los estudiantes priorizan las exigencias y directrices académicas y señalan que la utilización que hacen de la plataforma varía en función de si se trata, o no, de un encargo académico.
