enhance teaching and learning in tertiary education. Its usage ensures flexible
course delivery, makes it possible for learners to access online learning platforms,

revealed that the students find it easier to use a smartphone in their learning

freezing during important learning moments, unstable internet connectivity,
intruding calls during class hours, and the screen and key sizes, which made the
