The use of mobile learning has been investigated in many educational settings to support the effectiveness of mobile devices in teaching and learning. The study aims to explore students’ attitudes towards the use of mobile technology in higher education. To gain insight into students’ attitudes towards it, both quantitative and qualitative methods were employed from a 5-point Likert scale questionnaire and a semi-structured interview with the participation of 118 students in a university. The results showed that students expressed highly positive attitudes towards the use of mobile technology in learning. The easy access to resources and course materials was most beneficial to students accompanied by enhanced communication with peers and instructors to help students achieve better academic scores. Besides, students could develop various skills through mobile learning such as computer skills, analytical skills, and note-taking skills. It is to suggest the implication of using mobile devices to support teaching and learning to improve the quality of education in higher education as a whole.
