</p><p>An era of vast digital
advancements has given way to emerging technologies capable of transforming the
educational experience. Personal learning
technologies are increasingly pervasive and becoming more central to human
interaction. Among university students,
these devices often include mobile phones and tablets. The ubiquity of these technologies among college
students has caused researchers to study their effective use in the higher
education environment. The upcoming
field of mobile learning recognizes mobile devices as tools capable of putting
students at the center of learning.
Currently, a large body of mobile learning literature highlights how students
perceive the adoption of mobile devices in their college courses. Factors such as student skill level,
attitude, and practicality have been identified as critical elements to
adoption. As a result, multiple studies suggest
that students be trained in a way that impacts these factors. Yet, literature is silent on how this can be
successfully done. The following
research articles experiment with how training students impacts their skills and
attitudes toward mobile learning. It
also proposes how mobile learning can be used in a practical manner to improve
a present issue, namely students’ lack of global competence.</p>
