Learning through
mobile devices greatly facilitates a person to learn. Read the one that people
often do when using a mobile device. This study presents empirical evidence relating
to mobile integration in extensive reading in natural settings. Previous
studies of the Extensive Reading Program (ERP) have reached a positive
conclusion, namely that ERP for language learners is effective in improving
their linguistic skills related to reading and promoting their motivation and
attitude towards reading. The purpose of this study is to address the gaps in
this literature by investigating the impact of using mobile PC tablets in
online ERP on online activities of adolescent learners, reading ability and
user perceptions. The findings in reading materials assigned to mobile PC
tablets are just a start for our understanding of the acquisition of knowledge
in the mobile age; and, they are also a prelude to our understanding of learning
and acquiring the ability to read in a foreign language. The assumption from
this study, based on previous research is that extensive reading and e-book
programs improve students' reading ability as well as their interests and
attitudes toward reading. Many extensive reading principles are observed, such
as reading for fun and freedom of choice of reading material. The study also
proposes two directions for future studies on mobile readings. They include
learners' textbooks and their reading strategies on mobile devices.
