EMPOWERING LANGUAGE LEARNING FOR SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT: MOBILE-ASSISTED APPROACHES IN ENHANCING PRODUCTIVE AND RECEPTIVE SKILLS IN HIGHER EDUCATION
Main Article Content
Abstract
In the rapidly evolving landscape of higher education, language proficiency is integral for equipping students with the competencies necessary for sustainable development. This study explores the transformative potential of Mobile-Assisted Language Learning (MALL) in enhancing both productive (speaking and writing) and receptive (listening and reading) language skills among university students. As digital technologies continue to reshape pedagogical frameworks, MALL provides flexible, accessible, and interactive learning modalities tailored to diverse learner needs. This research examines the integration of mobile applications within foreign language curricula and evaluates their efficacy in fostering language acquisition within sustainable learning environments. By utilizing mobile learning platforms, students engage in continuous, autonomous learning, thereby enhancing self-efficacy and communication skills for real-world applications. The findings underscore MALL’s capacity to support individualized language development, foster collaborative engagement, and facilitate social interaction, all of which contribute to global employability and professional adaptability. This study advocates for the systematic integration of MALL into higher education curricula, emphasizing its role in cultivating sustainable, adaptive, and future-ready language learners equipped for success in an increasingly interconnected world.
