Details | This paper reports a project in which researchers at universities in Japan explored the use of Mobile Assisted Language Learning (MALL) practices by developing a learning module intended to help improve students’ scores on the TOEIC Listening and Reading Tests. It was concluded that the use of the MALL learning module encouraged study without teacher intervention, i.e. self study, in terms of time spent on learning tasks, levels of satisfaction derived from the tasks, and self-measured achievement. Furthermore, SRL in terms of the specificity of the goals, the customized creation of learning tasks and their in-class applications was observed. |
