ABSTRACT
This chapter presents mobile digital literacy and the interacting components within it as a means of clarifying how to sustain mobile learning at the personal level. Sustainability in this context describes the continuing use of mobile technologies for safe and effective learning across the individual's lifespan. Developing mobile digital literacy skills and competencies could improve attitudes toward the use of mobile technology for learning. There is a role for educators to foster the development of mobile digital literacy in all their students. Bring-your-own-device (BYOD) is a technology model where students bring a personally-owned smart mobile device from home to school for the purpose of learning. Pedagogically, mobile devices are tools that have the potential to support learning by providing a pervasive means of consuming information, communicating and sharing, investigating, capturing and analyzing data, assessing, managing tasks and creating multimodal learning artefacts.
