The document discusses mobile learning (M-learning) and mobile-assisted language learning (MALL). M-learning allows the learning process to be personalized, spontaneous, informal and ubiquitous as it removes the constraints of time and place. With MALL, students can learn a second language using mobile technology anywhere and anytime without needing to be in a classroom. While mobile learning has advantages like portability, connectivity and social interactivity, it also has disadvantages like small screens and limitations of data storage and multimedia on some mobile phones. The document also describes a language learning app for Android that uses games and social interaction to teach different languages at various levels.

2. The main characteristics of mobile learning (M-
learning) are recognized as the potential for the
learning process to be personalized, spontaneous,
informal and ubiquitous. While learning through mobile
phones may take longer compared to computers,
students feel a greater sense of freedom of time and
place, so that they can take advantage of the free time
to learn a second Language when and where they are.
Mobile-assisted language Learning (MALL) deals with the
use of mobile technology in language learning. In
contrast to classroom learning, in MALL there is no need
for students to sit in a classroom or computer to get
learning materials.

3. ● New phase in second and foreign language
learning.
● Powerful, cheaper, easier to use, the study of
mobile-assisted language learning becomes a
necessity.
● Transcending time and place boundaries, and
thus allowing us to interact with peers from
another part of the world.

4. ADVANTAGES DISADVANTAGES
• Portability,individuality
and connectivity.
• Social interactivity:
exchanging data and
collaboration with other
learners is possible
through mobile devices.
• Small screen, reading
difficulty on such a
screen,data storage and
multimedia limitations,
and the like.
• Many of the mobile
phones are not designed
for educational
purposes.
