“…Even though [1] reported no significant difference between the experimental and control groups on the post-test, but he found that students attitudes towards the use of mobile applications in teaching vocabulary is positive. [17] also inform in their research that mobile learning benefits led to strong and positive preferences for using mobile devices to self-study English.…”

Mobile learning (or m-learning) is the ability to learn anywhere and at any time using a portable electronic device. Mobile technologies gradually integrate into learnedness. Mobile devices and apps are changing the way learners acquires English. This study aims to develop a mobile Apps based on the Keller Plan Personalized system of instruction (PSI) theory called JuJu English Vocabulary to improve learners’ vocabulary acquisition. The mobile Apps was developed using ADDIE instructional design model. The developed Apps was investigated using a quasi-experimental research design among 60 students separated into two(2) groups: control and experimental groups. Data were analysed using SPSS software. The outcome shows a significant difference between Post-test experimental (using the mobile app) and the control group (traditional learning). This Mobile Apps design allows personalised growth among the experimental group of students in terms of their vocabulary acquisition. The design mimicking a game strategy did help increase their interest to enjoy the learning process.

“…A number of researchers have studied the pedagogical possibilities of mobile phones for basic English language learning and vocabulary learning. The findings either shows a significant improvement because of using the MALL ( [2], [12], [15]) or just positively shows user preference towards using it for learning ( [16], [17], [19]).…”

“…The existence of e-Learning indeed allows the learning process to be carried out anytime and anywhere. However, with m-Learning, students or teachers can use the cell phone feature to get a better user experience [11]. With m-learning, students can complete learning activities more quickly than with desktop or laptop computers.…”

Every student has a different learning style. Not all of these learning styles can be facilitated through classroom learning. Mobile learning (m-learning) is the use of mobile technology to support learning activities and facilitate a variety of student learning styles. However, no previous studies of the development of m-learning products have tested the possibility of facilitating different learning styles within a single M-learning application. This study describes the development and evaluation of an adaptive m-learning application that can facilitate the needs of different students. The Felder-Silverman Learning Style Model was used as the reference for learning styles. The prototype application was developed using the user-centered design method, which includes user needs analysis, interaction design, application development, and usability testing. The designers followed the best practices laid out in Shneiderman's Eight Golden Rules of Interface Design and Gagné’s Nine Events of Instruction. A usability test of the prototype involving ten participants. Usability testing is carried out by conducting usability testing and filling out the System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaire by all participants. The result found that it had good usability.

“…Learning EFL and ICT are fundamental for learners majoring computer science and control engineering not only for the use in academic fields but also for the means of communication worldwide. Students are expected to develop themselves through ICT competence and computing literacies [3,4]. With the assistance of information technology, learners are provided with challenges and opportunities to optimize knowledge and skills through online learning [5].…”

“…There have been several studies revealing the positive impacts of integrating technology into teaching and learning on the students' achievement [6,7,8]. With mobile devices, such as smartphones, tablets or computers, students were able to enhance their outcomes if mobile devices are integrated to the learning process frequently [4].…”

–Learning English as a foreign language (EFL) and computer technology are two fundamental skills for learners majoring computer science and control engineering not only for the use in academic fields but also for the means of communication worldwide. Among language skills, speaking is a core output element that all learners wish to achieve. This research looked into TPACK (Technological Pedagogical and Content Knowledge) model with an aim to de-sign an online English speaking course for non-English majored learners using VoiceThread as an instrument. Twelve Japanese students participated in the study over 12 weeks. The researcher used internal-service speaking criteria and a self-designed course satisfaction questionnaire based on TPACK model dimensions to collect quantitative data analyzed by R-studio software. Qualitative data were collected and analyzed by content analysis from interviews. The results of this study were discussed in terms of the learners’ progress as well as their satisfaction and the perceptions about using VoiceThread via Zoom and Google Classroom online learning platforms. The TPACK model suggested an effective teaching approach for teachers that can enhance non-native learners’ English speaking performance
