The present research was with the intention of analyzing what is the handling that university students from indigenous communities give to social media platforms during the COVID-19 pandemic and the impact that this has on their learning. For this purpose, we rely on the quantitative methodological approach, counting on a universe of 168 indigenous students, corresponding to the long school year February-July 2020, all from the Bachelor of Education Sciences of the Academic Division of Education and Arts in the Autonomous Juárez University of Tabasco, in Mexico. Of the total universe, 44 indigenous students between 19 and 24 years old were taken as a study sample. For data collection, a closed question form on a Likert-type scale was used as an instrument with 3 categories of responses that were previously delimited, in order to identify the use that they give to social media platforms and impact on learning of indigenous students. The results showed that the students, although they live in communities far from the city, are not limited in being able to access these digital tools, unfortunately the use they give does not favor their learning.
