A Synthesis of Mobile Learning Research Implications: Agricultural Faculty and Student Acceptance of Mobile Learning in Academia

Mobile technology is pervasive in our daily lives. The use of mobile devices is changing the educational model in traditional classrooms and eLearning classrooms. Mobile learning is the use of mobile technology to deliver educational content and is a growing educational tool in our educational institutions. A synthesis of research on the implications of mobile learning was conducted.
