  • Abstract
    In this paper, the present state of mobile learning in Korea is explored and its implications for future Korean education are discussed. In Korea, hardware and Internet infrastructure is well established and mobile devices are ubiquitous, therefore making learning with mobile devices in schools appear natural and imminent. Although mobile learning is in its beginning stages, it has bright prospects. This discussion attempts to provide meaningful direction for the future development of mobile learning in Korea.
