The “bring your own device” (BYOD) program is positioned as one of the fastest-emerging methods to solve accessibility problems in the flipped learning methodology. The objective of the study is to analyze the potential of a training plan through inverted learning using the BYOD program compared to inverted learning without BYOD. A quasi-experimental design was carried out on a sample of 118 Higher Education students. A questionnaire was used as an instrument for data collection. The results show that the assessments of the study groups, both control and experimental, are at medium–high levels, which shows a significant incidence of the teaching and learning methodologies applied in both groups. There are only three dimensions in which a distance is observed between the groups’ assessments: motivation and autonomy, which were better valued by the experimental group, and class time, which was better valued by the control group. The study concludes that there are no great differences between the teaching methodologies applied in the groups that were subjected to experimentation, except in terms of motivation and autonomy, making these methodologies reliable for the development of these dimensions.

Innovation has allowed for and developed new ways of teaching and learning. Gamification is among the new training methodologies, which is a didactic approach based on the game structure with an attractive component for students. Within gamification, flipped learning and problem-based learning, escape rooms can be found as a technical aspect, which is focused on providing enigmas and tracks for the various educational content that students have assimilated through learning based on problem solving. The aim of this study is to identify how the use of gamification with the use of educational escape rooms affects activation and absence of a negative effect on students. 61 Master students of the Autonomous City of Ceuta participated in this case study. They were divided into three study groups (1 control group; 2 experimental groups) that followed different formative actions (control group—traditional; experimental groups—escape rooms). To achieve the objectives, a mixed research design based on quantitative and qualitative techniques was followed. The instrument used for data collection was the GAMEX (Gameful Experience Scale). The results reveal that the students who had taken a gamified formative action through escape rooms obtained better assessment results in the indicators concerning motivation, teamwork, commitment, activation, and absence of a negative effect on the learning process than those with the traditional methodology.

Along with the development of technology both directly and indirectly can change someone in communicating, socializing and learning, this is a challenge for lecturers to be able to use technology optimally and to facilitate interaction with students in teaching and learning both in class and outside the classroom so that indicators in the unit of lecture events and semester learning design can be achieved. Edmodo is a social network platform for lecturers and students to share ideas, files, agenda of activities and assignments. Edmodo is designed to create lecturer and student interactions that emphasize fast communication, polling, assignments, sharing ideas, and much more. The research aims: 1) to find out whether mathematics learning using Edmodo (experimental) is better than learning without using Edmodo (conventional) on mathematical communication; 2) to find out whether students who study using Edmodo are positive towards learning mathematics. Quantitative research with quasi-experiment method, the research design used is nonequivalent control group design: providing two different treatments to two groups, namely the experimental class (Edmodo) and the control class (conventional). Quantitative data collection and analysis techniques using normality test, homogeneity test, two average similarity test, and t test. The results of the study are: 1). Learning using edmodo is better with learning without using edmodo with mathematical communication skills. 2). Students who learn to use edmodo have a positive attitude towards learning mathematics. The implication of the research is for the next researcher, using edmodo media so that maximum control is needed on students. If further research is conducted with different samples, the results shown will also be different. This can be viewed from a variety of different characteristics of students that greatly affect the ability of mathematical communication.
