摘要：This study reports on the investigation of the effect of mobile assisted learning
environment on academic achievement, acceptance of mobile learning tools and
cognitive load of EFL students. This study used a mixed methods approach which
involves the collection and analysis of quantitative and qualitative data to identify the
effect of mobile learning in a foreign language learning environment. Quantitative data
were collected from 63 foreign language learners via an academic achievement test,
cognitive load scale and mobile learning tools acceptance scale, before and after a sixweek
intervention period. Following the intervention, eight students from the
experimental group answered open-ended questions about their experience during
group interviews. Results showed a significant difference in academic achievement and
mobile learning tools acceptance level of students in favor of the experimental group.
The study also showed that although the students learning a foreign language in
mobile assisted learning environment were not cognitively overloaded, students in the
control group were. The themes emerged from the qualitative data point to the positive
and negative sides of the mobile-assisted learning environment.
