AbstractInterest in the use of a mobile phone to access the Internet for learning English in general, and listening skills in particular, has been increasing in Korea over the last few years. However, there has been only a small number of studies on this topic in Korea. The present paper investigates the potential of using a mobile phone to browse wireless application protocol (WAP) sites for the purpose of learning listening skills. The study focuses specifically on the attitudes of language learners toward using a mobile phone for this purpose. The study is based on input, interaction, output and sociocultural theories, as well as on collaborative, learner-centred, constructivist and task-based learning approaches. An experiment was carried out with a group of undergraduate students who had enrolled in a required intermediate English as a Foreign Language (EFL) listening course at a Korean university. A WAP site was designed and used as the instrument for the experiment. This study found that the language learners expressed positive attitudes towards the use of the WAP site. It also found that the WAP site can be effective for learning listening skills and for student-centred and collaborative learning. Based on the findings, it is clear that WAP sites can be effective for learning listening skills, since they can enhance opportunities to learn language skills, and encourage language learners to participate actively in the learning process.

            Dewasa ini penggunaan handphone semakin banyak, sehingga operator handphone menambah layanan dari handphone seperti SMS ( Short Message System ), e-mail, dan browsing internet dengan menggunakan teknologi WAP ( Wireless Application Protocol ). Dan proyek akhir “Pembuatan Homepage WAP” dikerjakan untuk membuat suatu layanan informasi tentang Politeknik Elektronika Negeri Surabaya yang dapat diakses melalui handphone yang memiliki fasilitas WAP.           WAP dilengkapi standart universal yang memudahkan pemakainya mengakses web yang sudah didesain khusus untuk layanan informasi dan aplikasi pada komunikasi bergerak dengan menggunakan bahasa pemrograman WML ( Wireless Markup Language ). Dan dengan dilengkapi layanan WAP Phone akan memudahkan pemakai mengakses informasi mengenai Politeknik Elektronika Negeri Surabaya secara cepat, mudah, kapan saja, dan dimana saja melalui handphone WAP.Kata Kunci : WAP, Internet, Handphone, WML.

Wireless application protocol (WAP) (Open Mobile Alliance, 2003) is a suite of network protocols that specifies ways of sending data across the airwaves. A wireless device is said to be WAP-compatible if, and only if, it has software that is fully capable of handling all WML 1.1 DTD entities. WML (Wireless Markup Language) (Open Mobile Alliance, 2001) is the XML-based language that is used in conjunction with WAP to format documents. As with all such protocol suites, WAP is organized hierarchically. At the bottom there are low-level protocols that are used for basic operations such as establishing connections, coding alphanumeric characters, and so on. At the top are the high-level protocols such as WML, which passes on page information. For more information on other WAP protocols, please visit http://www.wapforum.org/. WML script writing and applications will be discussed in Chapters VI through IX: • Chapter VI: The current chapter introduces fundamental WML components such as tables and images. • Chapter VII: Advanced WML, especially dynamic WML pages using CGI (Common Gateway Interface), will be introduced. • Chapter VIII: WMLScript, a lightweight JavaScript language used in conjunction with WML, is explained. • Chapter IX: The construction of a database-driven mobile web site using WML is explained step-by-step.
