How does mobile learning affect students?
This results in increased learner engagement levels to help students understand better. M-Learning also allows students to choose from among a wide range of instructional media such as videos, infographics, and audio to help them learn a given lesson effortlessly, improving engagement and, therefore, retention.How effective is mobile learning?
Time efficient
As a result, smartphone learners complete course material 45% faster than those using a desktop computer.What are the issues with mobile learning?
While it has some advantages over classroom models, M-learning is not without its flaws.
It can feel disconnected. It's easy to get distracted. Internet connectivity or hardware issues can create barriers.- MLearning, using mobile devices, expands the methods by which students can assimilate new information. These devices allow the students to choose moments and methods by which they can learn. Students move from being passive learners to being active learners responsible for their learning outcomes.

Research Trends in Mobile Learning in Higher
Education: A Systematic Review of Articles (2011 - 2015)Greig Krull and Josep M Duart
Universitat Oberta de Catalunya
Abstract
The potential and use of mobile devices in higher education has been a key issue for educational research
and practice since the widespread adoption of these devices. Due to the evolving nature and affordances
of mobile technologies, it is an area that requires ongoing investigation. This study aims to identify
emerging trends in mobile learning research in higher education in order to provide insights for
researchers and educators around research topics and issues for further exploration. This study analysed
the research themes, methods, settings, and technologies in mobile learning research in higher
education from 2011 to 2015. A total of 233 refereed articles were selected and analysed from peerreviewed journals. The results were compared to three previous literature review-based research studies
focused between 2001 and 2010 to identify similarities and differences. Key findings indicated that: (a)
mobile learning in higher education is a growing field as evidenced by the increasing variety of research
topics, methods, and researchers; (b) the most common research topic continues to be about enablingm-learning applications and systems; and (c) mobile phones continue to be the most widely used devices
in mobile learning studies, however, more and more studies work across different devices, rather than
focusing on specific devices. Keywords: mobile learning, research trends, research methods, pedagogical issues, higher educationIntroduction
Many higher education institutions are implementing mobile learning to provide flexibility in learning.
It is expected that this will continue to be a growing trend with the proliferation of wireless devices and
technologies. It is expected that the next generation of mobile learning will be ubiquitous and learners
themselves will be more mobile and able to learn using multiple devices (Ally & Prieto-Blázquez, 2014).

2 . (2005) learner isnot at a fixed, predetermined location, or learning that happens when the learner takes advantage of the
learning opportunities offered by mobile technologies. (p. 7). Mobile devices tend to drive new research opportunities in mobile learning because of the rate ofchanges in technologies. In addition to devices, communication technologies have also changed, shifting
the focus of research (Parsons, 2014). For example, social media and messaging apps are commonplace. The development and usage patterns of mobile technologies in education change quickly.This means that regular analysis is required of trends in mobile device types and functionality, along
with learner types and the use of mobile devices in various disciplines and courses (Wu et al., 2012, p.
818). The research purposes and methods used in studies are important because they influence how
research results are shared, interpreted and used (Wingkvist & Ericsson, 2011). Review studies can help
Schwabe, 2009). Understanding the trends in research studies can also help higher education policy makers in making decisions regarding technology and teaching and learning (Wu et al., 2012). This paper provides a systematic review of mobile learning research in higher education from 2011 to2015. It begins with an analysis of previous review studies in order to provide the basis of comparison
with similar studies. The research purpose and questions are then described. The next section discusses
the methodology used to conduct the review study. This is followed by the presentation of the results of
the study, with a comparison to three previous studies. The final section provides a discussion of the
findings of the review study.Previous Studies
A number of review studies have been conducted in recent years in an attempt to explore and provide insights into the growing body of knowledge in mobile learning. One of the first reviews in mobilelearning provided an activity-focused perspective of case studies in the use of mobile technologies for
education (Naismith, Lonsdale, Vavoula, & Sharples, 2004). Cheung and Hew (2009) conducted areview of research methodologies used in mobile learning in school and higher education settings. They
reviewed 44 articles published until the end of 2008 and found that descriptive research was the most
dominant research method and questionnaires were the most used data collection method. Frohberg,them against a mobile learning task model. Hwang and Tsai (2011) conducted a study of research trends
in mobile and ubiquitous learning by reviewing 154 articles from six major technology-enhanced
learning journals from 2001 to 2010. They found that the number of studies increased significantly over
the period. They also found that higher education students were the most frequent learning populations
and that most studies did not focus on a specific learning domain. Hung and Zhang (2012) examined mobile learning trends between 2003 and 2008 by using text-mining techniques to conduct a meta-trend analysis of 119 articles. They similarly found that studies in mobile learning increased rapidly over
that period. They also found that many studies focused on the effectiveness of mobile learning but there
was increasing focus on evaluation and systems development. Wu et al. (2012) recognised the value ofthese two previous studies, but felt further examination was required from the standpoint of research
purposes, methodologies, (p. 817). The authors used a meta-analysis approach toResearch Trends in Mobile Learning in Higher Education: A Systematic Review of Articles (2011 ² 2015)

3 systematically review 164 mobile learning studies published between 2003 and 2010. They also found most research purposes focussed on effectiveness and system design, but also found that surveys and experimental methods were the most used research methods and that the research outcomes in studies were significantly positive. Systematic reviews have also been conducted on conference proceedings. Wingkvist and Ericsson (2011) surveyed 114 papers presented at the World Conference on Mobile Learning (mLearn) conferences in2005, 2007, and 2008. The focus of the review was on research purposes and research methods. They
found that research methods were evenly distributed, with the exception of basic research (development
of new theories). In terms of research purpose, the majority of papers were descriptive research,
followed by developmental and understanding research. The lack of evaluative research papers was found to be a problem (Wingkvist & Ericsson, 2011).A number of review studies have also been conducted to investigate a particular aspect or theme related
to mobile learning. Wong and Looi (2011) conducted a review of mobile-assisted seamless learning related literature between 2006 and 2011. Baran (2014) studied the literature learning research in teacher education programmes. Song (2014) investigated methodological issues in Mobile Computer-Supported Collaborative Learning (mCSCL) research between 2000 and 2014. Liu etal. (2014) reviewed 63 articles in K-12 education between 2007 and 2012. Hsu and Ching (2015)
reviewed 17 articles to categorise the models and frameworks developed specifically for mobile learning.
Alrasheedi and Capretz (2015) reviewed 19 articles to determine critical success factors affecting mobile
learning.Parsons (2014) noted the number of previous reviews, yet highlighted that most reviews tended to focus
on a specific subset of the literature or a particular aspect of mobile learning. The purpose of his study
was to provide a full- (p. 2).Findings were presented in two forms. A timeline was used to highlight the evolution of mobile learning
.a mind map was used to summarise the key concerns in the areas of research, technology, content, learning, and learner (Parsons, 2014).Research Problem
The number of literature review-based studies and the results of these studies indicate a research field
that is growing and changing. Due to developments in technology, it is worth considering how the field
of mobile learning research is changing and how these studies are applied in higher education
specifically. Although several review studies (Hwang & Tsai, 2011; Wu et al., 2012) have found that the
majority of mobile learning studies take place within higher education, very few mobile learning review
studies have focussed solely on this sector. This study aims to analyse the research topics, methods,
settings, and technologies used in mobile learning research in higher education, published from January
2011 to December 2015. The research questions are:
1. What research methods have been used in mobile learning articles published from 2011 to 2015?
2. What are the research trends in terms of purposes, themes, and technologies?

Methodology
A systematic review provides a summary of the research literature, either quantitative or qualitative,
that uses explicit, replicable methods to identify and select relevant studies; and uses objective and
replicable techniques to analyse and summarise those studies (Cooper, 2010, as cited in Bernard,
Borokhovski, & Tamim, 2014). In order to ensure a systematic review process, this study followed the
seven steps suggested by Cooper (2010, as cited in Bernard et al., 2014) for conducting a systematic review or meta-analysis:1. Formulate the research problem.
2. Search the literature.
3. Gather information from studies.
4. Evaluate the quality of studies.
5. Analyse and integrate the outcomes of research.
6. Interpret the evidence.
7. Present the results.
These stages are neither mutually exclusive nor entirely distinct; rather, they should be viewed as key
steps in a continuous and iterative process (Cooper, 2010, as cited in Bernard et al., 2014). The first step
in conducting a systematic review is to formulate the research problem, which has been specified in the
section above.Literature Search
The second step in a systematic review is to search the literature. A limitation may exist in this study,
referred to as publication bias (Bernard et al., 2014)such as conference proceedings, technical reports, dissertations, and book chapters. However, the
search was limited to peer reviewed journal articles in order for better comparison between sources and
aligns with the search strategies by Hwang and Tsai (2011), Wu et al. (2012), Baran (2014), and Bozkurt
et al. (2015). Based on these studies, two databases were selected to ensure comprehensive data
collection: Scopus and ISI Web of Science. The starting point involved searching for a combination and
variation of the -learning and reviewing the results against the following inclusion criteria: Must involve mobile learning as a primary condition, Must focus specifically on learning at the higher education level, Must be published in a peer reviewed journal between January 2011 and December 2015,Must be written in English, and
