Students' Perceptions of Mobile English Learning
Journal Title: Psychology and Education: A Multidisciplinary Journal - Year 2022, Vol 6, Issue 5
Abstract
As an informal way of learning, mobile learning has attracted many researchers and learners. A quantitative survey method on students' opinions of and language performance in mobile learning was undertaken, particularly among science majors at Taishan University (one comprehensive Chinese university in Shandong province), to investigate the current state of mobile learning among college students in China. Through the investigation, it is found that college students seem to know little about m-learning. They are receptive and supportive of m-learning, and most have participated, even though they are presumably unaware of the critical concepts. Besides, as an informal way of learning, m-learning has become a fashion for college students. They have been motivated to learn English with mobile devices, mainly prefer learning words and practicing listening and spoken language via mobile gadgets. In brief, college students are well prepared for m-learning in terms of their perceptions towards and language performance in m-learning. The present study is far from flawless in a proper academic sense because of various subjective aspects, despite the author's efforts to analyze the status of m-learning through a survey of science majors. As a result, it is essential to note that this study still has certain shortcomings. The study is intended to provide some insight into how teachers might successfully incorporate mobile learning into traditional modes of instruction.
