Summary: | This study investigated the use of Mobile and Wireless Technology (MWT) in higher education
using the selected public university students in Malaysia. A random sampling has been selected
among 490 students from three Public Universities and one Polytechnic. The study has been
addressed to focus on the applications of MWT in learning and to identify the significant differences
between gender and level of studies when using the learning applications via MWT. Using
descriptive statistics, Independent t test, Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and Post Hoc mean
comparison test, this study highlighted the low level of MWT usage among students. Among other
findings are the differences between gender and level of studies only related to specific learning
activities. Implications of the study were discussed |
