With the surprise of remote teaching and all the changing pedagogical structure, the way out of providing meaningful learning for students was to resort to innovative methods. Therefore, it is important to understand how the media universe, which ranges from social networks to online movie, music and series platforms and how this can be favorable within the educational scenario, especially in the face of a teaching modality that directly affects teaching and learning.
