description: Mobile learning (m-learning) is said to be the next wave of learning (Bonk, 2009).  The ITU World Telecommunication (2009) reported an estimate of  4.6 billion mobile cellular telephone subscriptions around the world compared to 6.8 fixed telephone line subscriptions.   There are currently 9.5 billion mobile broadband subscriptions.  Expected to bring about ubiquitous learning or u-learning, mobile devices such as phones have become more affordable, yet more powerful and packed with features that rival the supercomputers of years ago.  Hence, it is not surprising that an increasing number of institutions of higher learning (IHL) are starting to design learning that incorporates mobile devices.
