Abstract	Busy, active adults often do not have the time or ability to study in traditional, face-to-face classroom settings. In addition, adult learners may need access to content or expertise as they go about their daily activities, which may take them far from their fixed computers. Yet, these adults often have compelling needs to learn new knowledge and skills. Mobile learning with cell phones offers a unique response to this need. Mobile phones can support many kinds of learning, including language learning. This article explores the emerging technologies available for mobile language learning, and provides a model for integrating research-based pedagogy with available and emerging technologies to develop learning objects for effective, engaging mobile language learning.
