Abstract
This research aims to establish the meanings and relations that exist between creating educational content for an application featuring Mobile Pedestrian Navigation Systems (MPNS) and Augmented Reality (AR), and the processes involved in Mobile Learning (mLearning). In this mobile context, the study aims to develop a training process linked to territorial information about the corresponding architectural and historical heritage of the cities of Salamanca (Spain) and Santiago (Chile), proving their educational importance. Methodologically, this research focuses on two main areas: (1) The optimized design of a learning platform with AR and MPNS resources in a historical context; and (2) the validation of the software's educational effectiveness in relation to other traditional teaching and learning tools. Finally, the study is in the process of creating a thematic heritage model determining the scope of this tool in the processes of mLearning, considering the elements of identity and local culture.

Geolocation for the Improvement of Spatial and Naturalist Intelligence in Primary Education
This type of intelligence can be defined as the set of mental abilities directly related to navigation and rotation of objects in an abstract way. Thus, in spatial intelligence the person is able to imagine a three-dimensional space that maintains its coherence with the passage of time independent of the angle from which it is mentally visualized.
