Abstract
As mobile devices become more and more ubiquitous amongst teens, they are fighting their way into the educational landscape. With the rapid changes in technology and the focus on education to integrate it, this study is timely. Educators find it difficult to capture the attention of their students and motivate them to stay engaged in formal class. Historically, education has been device centric, focusing on the tool rather than the ways in which that tool can be used. Using TPACK, or technological, pedagogical, content knowledge pulls the attention from the specific devices and focuses on how those devices can be used. This study will look at how undergraduate students and higher education faculties use mobile devices in and out of the class for academic purposes. It will suggest TPACK as an educational framework for educators to integrate these devices into their instruction. Key words: mobile devices, TPACK, formal learning, informal learning
