Open University Malaysia’s mission is to widen access to quality education and to provide lifelong learning opportunities by leveraging technology, by adopting flexible modes of learning, and by providing a conducive and engaging learning environment at a competitive and affordable cost. With that in mind and in line with the motto “University for All,” text messaging was chosen over other mobile technology applications because it is the lowest common denominator of all mobile technologies: It can be used on all types of mobile phones and students are familiar with receiving SMSes. This is consistent with the university’s philosophy of democratizing education, which means making education available to all, regardless of time, place, age, and social economic background.
