Student’s and teachers’ opinions about the teaching/learning experience and the quality of the learning that took place were collected with questionnaires and semi structured interviews record in video. Results The results are organized according to the study aims: a) showing the conception and creation processes of microlearning contents, bearing in mind the different design criteria defined by the teacher/expert of each area of study; and b) understanding how microlearning contents can impact and help students’ autonomous learning and recovery of lost learnings, and work as autonomous learning boosters using data from the “In defense of the Ocean” project. The conception and creation processes of microlearning contents Project working processes has different phases.
