Abstract

Mobile learning (m-learning) has been applied to
foreign language education for more than a decade. Now that the emerging technologies and
digital environments for learning have led to innovative learning experiences,
there has been an exponential growth
in the use of mobile applications for language learning. A growing volume of research
has been conducted on Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL), emphasizing
conceptualization of MALL and investigating the learning outcomes of users of
MALL applications in foreign language classes. This paper aims to elaborate on the concept of mobile-assisted language
learning (MALL) in association with learning theories and challenges, to
present a conceptual framework of MALL design principles and dimensions, and to
review existing MALL studies.

Keywords
