Abstract

Technological developments influence educational systems. It has been understood that educational environments are not limited to schools. With the use of computers and the internet in educational systems, occasions to access information have changed, and such concepts as mobile learning have occurred. In recent years, mobile learning (m-learning) has been an important component of distance education. For that reason, the aim of this study is to summarize and synthesize research findings in the literature by employing literature review. On this basis, research published between 2013 and 2017 was included to the content of this study.  Throughout the research, 11 research articles were found and 9 of them were selected. Purposes, methodologies, and outcomes of these researches were explained. Therefore, the study is considered to be important since it tried to reveal the related research trends of mobile learning.
