This research is about the readiness of teachers and students to develop E-learning and M-learning for the learning process. Before developing and implementing an E-learning and M-learning system, it is important to ensure the user's readiness for the technology. Users' perceptions will affect their willingness and readiness to use the system. This study aims to investigate the teachers and students perceptions about E-learning and M-learning, ensuring their readiness to involve in developing online learning process. The study was conducted by survey methods, questionnaires and direct interviews with prospective users in the schools, students, teachers and principals. Research respondents were from Junior High School and Senior High Schools in Samarinda. The questionnaires will be carried out in two stages, before and after the development of E-learning and M-learning systems. The findings obtained from this study indicate that research partner schools are ready and able to participate in developing E-learning and M-learning systems.

As technology has explosively and globally revolutionized the teaching and learning processes at educational institutions, enormous and innovative technological developments, along with their tools and applications, have recently invaded the education system. Using mobile learning (m-learning) employs wireless technologies for thinking, communicating, learning, and sharing to disseminate and exchange knowledge. Consequently, assessing the learning attitudes of students toward mobile learning is crucial, as learning attitudes impact their motivation, performance, and beliefs about mobile learning. However, mobile learning seems under-researched and may require additional efforts from researchers, especially in the context of the Middle East. Hence, this study’s contribution is enhancing our knowledge about students’ attitudes towards mobile-based learning. Therefore, the study goal was to investigate m-learning’s effect on the learning attitudes among technology education students. An explanatory sequential mixed approach was utilized to examine the attitudes of 50 students who took an educational technology class. A quasi-experiment was conducted and a phenomenological approach was adopted. Data from the experimental group and the control group were gathered. Focus group discussions with three groups and 25 semi-structured interviews were performed with students who experienced m-learning in their course. ANCOVA was conducted and revealed the impact of m-learning on the attitudes and their components. An inductive and deductive content analysis was conducted. Eleven subthemes stemmed out of three main themes. These subthemes included: personalized learning, visualization of learning motivation, less learning frustration, enhancing participation, learning on familiar devices, and social interaction, which emerged from the data. The researchers recommended that higher education institutions adhere to a set of guiding principles when creating m-learning policies. Additionally, they should customize the m-learning environment with higher levels of interactivity to meet students’ needs and learning styles to improve their attitudes towards m-learning.
