Description
This study investigates the influence of mobile learning apps on student engagement and learning outcomes in higher education. With smartphones becoming ubiquitous, mobile apps for learning are on the rise. Employing a mixed-methods approach, we examine the impact of these apps on student motivation, participation, and academic performance. Preliminary findings suggest that mobile learning apps substantially impact student engagement, enabling flexible learning experiences that transcend the confines of traditional classroom settings. These apps promote self-directed learning and provide opportunities for immediate feedback, fostering increased motivation among students. Moreover, students using these apps demonstrate improved learning outcomes, manifesting in enhanced academic performance and more profound comprehension of course content. This research sheds light on the potential benefits of integrating mobile learning apps into higher education while addressing the associated challenges.
