Abstract

The widespread use of mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, especially in young population, allows m-learning to become an effective tool in teaching and learning inside and outside the classroom. The aim of this paper is to show how m-learning can  support and develop individual foreign language competences and skills evenly. Finally, a concrete media-supported learning scenario is presented as an illustrative example of the so-called hybrid learning concept.
