Given the emergence of new mobile devices (tablet, PDA and smart phone), and the growth that knows that part of the ICT, integrating these new technologies into the learning system was imposed, and a new way of learning was born. Mobile learning or "m-learning" is providing great opportunities for learners, especially to learn anytime and anywhere without limitations. There is a new generation of students who grew up using technology and who are easily related to new mobile devices. We discuss the identity of mobile learning and aim to measure the interest of students on it through a survey. This survey seeks to promote mobile learning within the student’s community for a possible adoption in Moroccan higher education. Qualitative and quantitative approaches are endorsed. The results are analyzed, conclusions and perspectives presented at the end of this paper.

Bill Kaplin and Barbara Lee let their readers know up front - on the book's cover in fact - that "A Legal Guide for Student Affairs Professionals" has been adapted from their highly regarded third edition of "The Law of Higher Education" [LHE3](1995) ("the big red book," as my students refer to it). The authors have included material already presented in LHE3 but have completely reorganized, updated, and edited the earlier work.

In the introduction of this book, Arthur Cohen states that The Shaping of American Higher Education is less a history than a synthesis. While accurate, this depiction in no way detracts from the value of the book. This work synthesizes the first three centuries of development of high-er education in the United States. A number of books detail the early history of the American collegiate system; however, this book also pro-vides an up-to-date account of developments and context for under-standing the transformation of American higher education in the last quarter century. A broad understanding of the book’s subtitle, Emergence and Growth of the Contemporary System, is truly realized by the reader.

The influence of John Dewey's philosophy of education - most notably, emphasizing the educational value of experience and service, situating learning in community, and promoting a faith in cultural pluralism - is evident in recent calls for institutions of higher education to strengthen to the larger community and to promote multiculturalism (Gamson, 1997).
