Abstract

• A university-wide survey on students' mobile learning practices showed that ownership of mobile devices is high among students and that tablets are the most popular devices for academic purposes.
• The survey also found that mobile learning typically occurs outside the classroom, with only limited guidance from instructors.
• To improve mobile learning effectiveness, students and instructors need help adopting more effective learning and teaching practices across content areas.
