This document summarizes research into how students in higher education use mobile phones for learning. It discusses findings from a survey of 74 undergraduate students, including what mobile features and apps they use for tasks like research, communication, note-taking and organizing. It also provides three in-depth case studies of students who were interviewed about how and why they incorporate mobile learning into their routines. The conclusions indicate that students are already finding creative ways to leverage their mobile devices for educational purposes on their own, and universities could better support this by encouraging mobile learning initiatives that build upon existing student practices and technologies.
