Exploring the Theory, Benefits, and Challenges of Mobile Web-Based Learning (MWBL) for English as a Second Language (ESL) Learners

Abstract

The philosophy, benefits, and challenges of mobile web-based learning (MWBL) for English language learners are examined in this paper. MWBL offers dynamic and participatory exercises that are in line with constructivist and behaviorist theories, combining the benefits of mobile learning and web-based learning. Flexibility, personalized learning experiences, more engagement and motivation, and the encouragement of self-directed learning are all advantages of MWBL. Nevertheless, obstacles to MWBL implementation include teachers' openness to new technology, technological problems with privacy and security, and the demand for user-friendly interfaces. Stakeholders, including the Ministry of Education, state education departments, administrators, and teachers, must work together to provide the infrastructure, support, training, and resources necessary to enable successful MWBL implementation. MWBL can improve by resolving these issues and maximizing the advantages.
