The main objective of the article is to evaluate two digital social media platforms, Blog and WhatsApp, to reduce failure in higher education. This is a serious problem for students, teachers and institutions that involves a series of lost human and material resources. Hence, it is necessary to change traditional learning styles to new technological tools applicable to online and active learning; some of them, in particular, can be used to reduce student failure and dropout (Cabrero and Llorente, 2005). The methodological design of this document has a mixed approach. Due to its purpose, it is an exploratory, descriptive and correlational research. In it, two digital platforms are compared to determine which of them improves knowledge transfer through collaborative work and reduces failure. The results of this work show that the Blog offers better results than WhatsApp to reduce disapproval in Software Engineering courses taught at the Polytechnic University of Santa Rosa Jáuregui. The blog's digital platform represents the best alternative as a digital platform that affects active learning that reduces student failure and improves school performance.
