| dc.description.abstract | M-learning is constantly opening paths that are transforming our way of living, learning and communicating. M-learning has significantly diminished barriers, especially, of distance and space, as a result of which lectures can now be delivered for the benefit of people across countries and continents. This is what globalization aims at achieving – to bring about increasing relationships of culture, people and economic activity. The university students in Nigeria could pursue the goal of achieving a range of experiences offered by m-learning and become competent. Obviously, the use of mobile and portable devices for learning has capabilities to inspire new approaches to learning. The possibilities are limitless and need to be fully explored. This paper fully exposed the kinds of interactions which students in Nigerian universities could exploit using various mobile technologies that have also been fully treated in this work. Even though the challenges of adopting m-learning in Nigerian universities are enormous, it is expected that the first step for the university administrators and teachers would be the modification of the existing curriculum to cater for the context of learning which refers to the learner and the environment. We believe that the demand for graduates with m- learning skills would increase and this represents a unique way of tackling unemployment in Nigeria. | |
