CHAPTER 5 DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSION

5.4. Conclusion

As a preliminary investigation in the context of high schools in Taiwan, the present study explores students’ preferences for devices in mobile-assisted vocabulary learning. The students’ high ownership of mobile phone and its immediate availability contributed to their being accustomed to mobile lives. They regarded completing vocabulary exercises one of the many things their mobile phones could easily do.

Their welcoming attitude toward mobile phones determined their preference for mobile phones over other devices, which in turn facilitated their acceptance of mobile integration in their learning.
