This thesis investigated the appropriation of information and communication technologies in everyday life among university students and mature people. To that end, pertinent literature was reviewed resulting in the identification of three issues in need of amore careful appraisal by the HCI field. These issues were used as the research questions propelling this work; they include the identification of elements favouring the process of appropriation; the effect of a changing context on this process; and the co-existence of seemingly overlapping ICTs in people’s lives. A qualitative methodology was utilised in the studies reported in this thesis. Ethnographic work was conducted over a period of three months with fifteen masters students at the University of Glasgow in the UK. Further ethnographic work over a shorter time frame was conducted abroad among university students at Hokkaido University in Japan, Ajou University in South Korea and Nankai University in China. Additional ethnographic work was conducted among mature people in a religious community in Mexico. Qualitative data gathered was analysed using Grounded Theory and Structuration Theory.

En el proceso de la comunicación humana, el lenguaje escrito es uno de los códigos más utilizados para la transmisión de un mensaje y es quizá, el que refleja más fielmente el orden y la madurez del pensamiento o razonamiento del hombre. En el proceso dinámico de la historia, el lenguaje cambia, evoluciona con el uso. Así la redacción de los jóvenes estudiantes universitarios también cambia a través del tiempo, sobre todo por la situación en la que se encuentran inmersos: su formación educativa.
