The main aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of using mobile apps combined
with traditional methods for teaching sustainability and corporate social responsibility (CSR) to
undergraduate students. Although previous papers stated the importance of apps, they showed no
conclusive results, and there are few studies analyzing their importance in management training,
and particularly in sustainability management. To achieve our main goal, drawing upon the action
learning system, we designed and implemented several training sessions combining traditional
methods and apps. The effectiveness of teaching methods was assessed with two surveys (pre- and
post-training) with questions about sustainable consumption, lifestyle, and CSR management. The
results demonstrate that students found this type of learning beneficial, showing an increase in their
commitment to social and environmental issues. These findings underline the potential for apps in
teaching sustainability at undergraduate levels in combination with more traditional methods.
