Abstract:

The data from the DMG comes from a digital survey, the WS, that is answered by students from sixth grade of primary school to high school. This survey is available on a public educatión online platform called SEA. During 2023, 20,535 students responded to this survey.Within the digital consumption module, students are asked about the most used social networks; about the online games they use the most, with who they play and on what platform they play them. A description of each of the main games is also made, reflecting on the online gaming phenomenon in Uruguay.Also the DMG ask about Social media influencers (SMIs). Currently SMIs have a fundamental role in modeling adolescents behavior. With this information, a list of the 10 most important is made, giving a brief description of each one. These reports also analyze other important information about cultural online consumption. There are three reports online free, published every year. These reports are disseminated to the Ceibal territorial teams so they can work on them in the schools. The reports also offer some links of interest to work on these topics. Comprehending this consumption facilitates greater insight into contemporary adolescent culture, thus averting intergenerational communication gaps that affect the student-teacher bond . Some of This information is unique in the country and the region, and allows us to know key elements of the behavior of children and adolescents. It is not only important to know digital consumption but also to become familiar with it. The DMG brings important and updated knowledge that is friendly to understanding.
