Resumen

Este estudio analizó la efectividad de los módulos autoinstructivos articulados con microlearning en adultos de contextos educativos y laborales de alta demanda, y valoró su aplicabilidad a estudiantes militares de un Centro de Educación Básica Alternativa (CEBA). Se realizó una revisión sistemática conforme a PRISMA 2020 en PubMed, ERIC y OpenAlex, con estudios de 2015 a 2025 publicados en revistas indexadas en Scopus, Web of Science o SciELO. De 316 registros únicos se incluyeron 36 estudios. La evidencia mostró mejoras frecuentes en conocimientos, autoeficacia, motivación y satisfacción; dos investigaciones militares respaldaron la viabilidad del acceso breve, móvil y autorregulado. La heterogeneidad metodológica, el predominio de resultados de corto plazo y la escasez de estudios en educación básica de adultos limitan la generalización. El modelo es prometedor como complemento de la enseñanza si combina secuencias breves, práctica, retroalimentación, acceso sin conexión y acompañamiento docente.
