Resumen

In this paper, the level of development and implementation of mobile applications in Spanish universities is analyzed. First, we propose a categorization and service-oriented classification of the existing apps. Second, an assessment tool was designed. This instrument, called MappUn (Metric for Mobile Apps in Universities), includes functional areas, services and their weighting, with the purpose of assessing both the quantity and type of mobile applications, and detecting the most advanced or laggard areas of development. Finally, am-Learning ranking for Spanish universities was calculated according to the number of the mobile applications provided by them for the different services, allowing for the identification of leaders from which to derive significant experiences, best practices and advice. It was concluded that Spanish universities are still in the initial stages of m-Learning implementation or in a moderate development phase. Due to its simplicity, clarity, rigor and flexibility, this instrument can be applied to different academic contexts.
