Abstract
21st century is an age for learning and it declared to be the age of information and communication technology due to the revolution of mobile technology. The practice of providing education with the help of modern technologies is termed as e-education or e-learning or m-learning. Today the mobile technology has become an integral part of our live and we cannot work in the society without mobile phone, internet etc. everybody is using online technology in day today working progress. Obviously the combination of wireless technology and mobile computing is resulting in escalating transformations of the educational world. The question is, how are the wireless, mobile technologies affecting the learning environment, pedagogy, and campus life? To answer this question, we must assess the current state of affairs, surveying cyber culture globally and historically. This paper seeks to clarify the meaning of mobile learning by applying its key concepts to learning experiences in post-school education. In other words, it seeks not to discuss one fixed meaning of mobile learning but to disassemble the basic components and provide an interpretation of the model in the context of higher education. In particular, Mobile Learning, or M-learning as it is often called, is a relatively new tool in the pedagogical arsenal to assist students and teachers as they navigate the options available in the expanding of learning world.
