. Introduction The fast growth of new generation of mobile devices such as mobile phones, tablets as well as progression in wireless technology has intensified the great potential of mobile learning in becoming an effective tool for learning. Thus, according to (Wagner, 2005: 45) ‘‘the value of deploying mobile technologies in the service of learning and teaching seems to be both self-evident and unavoidable.’’ In Malaysia, mobile learning or m-learning is being explored by many individual educators and researchers. However, Traxler (2007) believes that the concept of mobile education is still emerging and still unclear. According to Kukulska-Hulmefv (2007) mobile learning is proving to be a fertile ground for innovation, but it is important to realise that the success of mobile learning will depend on human factors in the use of the new mobile and wireless technologies. It is only now that the challenges of mobile learning on a larger scale, and with diverse populations of students, are beginning to be understood. Malaysian Communication and Multimedia Commission (MCMC) reported in a survey in 2008 that the main users of the mobile phone range in age group from of 20 to 49 years. More than half (56.4%) of the 28,000 respondents were males and the rest (43.6%) were females. Another report by Digital Media across Asia shows that in 2009, there were 100.8 mobile phones per 100 Malaysians. This indicates that each Malaysian may own more than one mobile phone. Malaysian 3G subscriptions also grew tremendously from a mere 427 in 2006, to a massive 4366 in 2008. With this increasing number of mobile phone owners, it is especially necessary for educators to look into the possibility of integrating m-learning into the university academic programmes.
