(IEEE, 2020) Dolawattha, D. D. M; Pramadasa, S.; Jayaweera, P. M.
With the popularity of mobile devices, learning through mobile device proliferated in the education sector. Now a day's mobile devices and mobile technologies are advancing rapidly. Therefore, mobile learning surpassing all other educational servicing methods. On the other hand, human life style averts stagnated education and demanding synchronous mode education such as learning while working. In this study we set out to look-over influencing factors on mobile devices for applicable and sustainable mobile learning environment. ln this study we propose an impact model consists six influencing factors i.e. screen size, supportive software, screen zooming, video playback control, touch screen keyboard, and language predictive tools. 120 university teachers and learners with equal portion in each category participated on the model evaluation through pre and post survey questionnaires. Initially they faced pre survey questionnaire with their prior mobile learning experience and finally took the post survey questionnaire after successfully working on the Moodle mobile app modified by first author, The results revealed that the most significant impact factor in the proposed model was'screen zooming'. Hence, when designing applicable and sustainable mobile learning environment it should be considered that, the screen zooming as the most significant mobile device feature for learner and teacher to adopt in mobile learning.
