Mobile computing has become a major area of interest in Higher Education. It is challenging to ensure that mobile technologies are effectively and efficiently integrated into the educational environment because faculty members, who lack technology skills, teaching strategies and enthusiasm, might not be ready to embrace such transformative technologies.
