“…Dari hal tersebut, smartphone menjadi memiliki dua kegunaan utama; penggunaan pribadi, yaitu umumnya berkaitan dengan komunikasi dan pencarian informasi; sedangkan penggunaan profesional maupun akademik digunakan untuk tujuan komunikasi dan manajemen yang berkaitan dengan pendidikan. Hasil tinjauan literatur yang diperoleh oleh Mauri-Medrano et al (2023), ditemukan bahwa sebagian besar penelitian terkait mobile learning menunjukkan bahwa permasalahan mendasar terkait penerapan konsep tersebut adalah pengaplikasian teknologi informasi dan komunikasi di dalam kelas yang belum melalui tahap analisis dan refleksi terlebih dahulu terhadap dampaknya secara didaktis, atau dalam kegiatan pengajaran.…”

This study aims to determine the extent to which students can use smartphones as ICT literacy media and learning resources. This is due to the development of increasingly advanced technology that requires the nation's generation to be able to face the challenges of the era, one of which is being able to use technologies, especially smartphones, for positive things, particularly in ICT literacy and as learning resources. The method used in this research is a descriptive method with a qualitative approach. The results of the study show that smartphones can be used as ICT literacy media and learning resources for college students. Also, students have been able to carry out ICT literacy well as evidenced by the use of existing applications on smartphones to search, obtain, and manage information, which later on this information can also be a source of learning. On the other hand, from the use of smartphones as learning and literacy media, there are also negative impacts, such as addiction and dependence on smartphones, the amount of negative content and fake news that can be found online. The solution that can be used to overcome this is the presence of self-control tools or high selfawareness from the students themselves.

“…However, apparent readiness does not imply that everything is truly ready (Parkes et al, 2015). The investigation into the sustainability of mobile learning in education is presently in its nascent developmental phases (Medrano et al, 2023). Sustainability is defined as the enduring nature of the perpetual advancement of mobile learning, its ability to accommodate evolving user demands and align with its intended objectives, its capacity to adapt to potential changes, and its likelihood of achieving widespread user acceptance (A. M. Al-Rahmi et al, 2021).…”

Aim/Purpose: The present study explores the key determinants that influence the intention of public higher education institutions in Malaysia to utilize mobile learning. Furthermore, this study investigates the correlation between these attributes and the components that affect the sustainability viability of mobile learning. Background: The proliferation of mobile devices and the impact of COVID-19 have both played a role in the exponential growth of mobile learning. Mobile learning has emerged as an essential instrument and principal approach to student education within the higher education system amidst the pandemic. Nevertheless, research concerning the sustainability of mobile learning is still in its nascent phases in the post-pandemic period. Methodology: Structural equation modeling is utilized to analyze the gathered data and validate the hypotheses in this study, which comprises an online survey of 280 undergraduate students attending public higher education institutions in Malaysia. Contribution: This mobile learning research on the sustainability of learning environments during COVID-19 adds to the educational literature. This study reconstructs the antecedent factors of three fundamental constructs of the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) to explain the features of mobile learning sustainability. This research provides a theoretical framework for mobile learning sustainability. Findings: Based on the empirical evidence, the intention to adopt mobile learning in Malaysian higher education institutions is notably and directly influenced by attitude, subjective norms, and perceived behavioral control. Additionally, the core constructs of TPB are significantly impacted by perceived usefulness, instructor readiness, student readiness, perceived self-efficacy, and learning autonomy. Nevertheless, in Malaysian higher education institutions, the intention to adopt mobile learning is not significantly affected by the perceived ease of use. Recommendations for Practitioners: Mobile learning providers should work on enhancing the performance of this technology to improve content appropriateness and support. Higher education administrators should improve faculty readiness to strengthen the sustainability and efficacy of mobile learning. Improving students’ self-discipline in mobile learning and their perceived preparedness and self-efficacy is critical. Recommendation for Researchers: This study provides future researchers with a comprehensive perspective on mobile learning, which should be studied regarding technology acceptance, self-perception, and external influences, as well as a holistic research framework that combines internal and external aspects to explain mobile learning adoption behavior. Furthermore, future researchers should broaden their study horizons to include other educational institutions and populations and identify disparities to encourage broader use of mobile learning. Impact on Society: COVID-19 has profoundly impacted educational quality and the achievement of sustainable development goals (SDGs). This study demonstrates how mobile learning gives a unique chance for students to continue their learning journey from the comfort of their homes, lessening the disruption caused by pandemics and contributing to the progress of excellent education globally. Future Research: Based on the findings, future research should broaden the study’s scope to include selecting students (undergraduate and postgraduate) and instructors from multiple universities in various states of Malaysia, collecting data and examining the differences between them, and providing an overall view of mobile learning adoption behaviors (intention to adopt and actual usage) from the perspective of both interactions.

PurposeThis study examined the influence of social media use on graduateness and the employability of exit students in South Africa.Design/methodology/approachThe study used quantitative and descriptive research designs to test the proposed hypotheses. An online survey was used to collect the data from a study sample. A sample of 411 respondents was received, with structural equation modelling (SEM) being used to assess the model fit.FindingsThe study found that the direct effect of social media use on graduateness skills is significant. Secondly, the direct effect of graduateness skills on perceived employability is also significant. The results also showed existence of support for the mediation of graduateness skills on the relationship between social media use and perceived employability.Research limitations/implicationsThe study provides empirical evidence to the proposed model and infers the potential role of social media in addressing issues related to graduateness and the employability of exit students.Practical implicationsIn addressing the challenge of unemployment, the use of social media can potentially aid in matters of skills acquisition.Originality/valueThe results demonstrate how technology through the use of social media potentially fits within enhancing graduateness and employability skills.
