Abstract The current study investigated the effect of a mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) program on EFL students’ critical reading skills. The study followed a quasi-experimental one-group design. The study participants were 40 third-year EFL majors at the Faculty of Education, Suez University during the second semester of 2017/2018. A pre/posttest was prepared by the researcher to measure participants’ critical reading skills. At the beginning of the experiment, the participants were pretested. After conducting the experiment for about three months, the participants were post-tested. A paired samples t-test revealed that a statistically significant difference existed between the mean score of the pretest and that of the posttest (t=14.807, p<0.05) in favor of the posttest. This result indicated that the MALL program had a good impact on developing EFL critical reading skills of the participants. It was concluded that mobile learning had a significant effect on EFL students’ critical reading skills. It was recommended that mobile learning be incorporated into EFL college reading courses. |
