Abstract
The objective of the research was to identify the types of digital divide and the use of social media related to the results of the application of smart e-learning in obstetrics during the health emergency due to COVID-19 in a public management university located in a remote place of Peru, such as the Santiago Antúnez de Mayolo National University (UNASAM). A cross-sectional research was developed by applying an online questionnaire to obstetric students between September and October 2020. It was found that the moderately satisfactory results achieved by the majority of students with the use of smart e-learning are related to digital divide of access, use and quality of information, as well as with the use of WhatsApp, Facebook and YouTube, findings that mean a contribution to the study of the application of digital smart e-learning tools in contexts of technological inequality and health crisis caused by COVID-19.
