Nowadays the use of mobile devices has increased dramatically as they have been integrated into different learning facilities. In this paper, the opinions of high school students and their teachers will be evaluated in order to get a better understanding of how mobile devices are used in the learning environment. A qualitative and quantitative method was used in this study. Multiple cases for the purpose of understanding the level of students' use of these devices in schools. Through the results of this study, it can be determined whether spending on textbooks and supplies is necessary compared to replacing it with technology. This model can be divided into five categories. (MLIS) mobile phone by developing a mobile learning model in Iraqi secondary schools (MLIS). This model can be divided into five categories, including mobile learning, drivers, process, community, and influencing factors. Each of the categories is related to each other, as well as related to planning and goals. However, both students and teachers believe that using mobile devices in an educational setting can help increase overall achievement, improve student motivation, and create a positive learning environment in schools. This study also helps enrich the existing literature on mobile technology in schools, where knowledge is lacking in the Iraqi educational system.

The online learning environment is an integral part of activities conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic in schools. This study explored the Malaysian high school students’ online learning perspectives using a mixed-methods study. The quantitative findings reported that students are not ready to go online. The qualitative analysis revealed several emerging themes related to students’ dissatisfaction with the online learning environment. The issues are related to repository-based teaching, cognitive overload, social presence, technology comfort, and discipline. Students suggested that teachers should implement the use of standardised applications, fixed schedules, and interactive sessions. The study concluded that interactions are lacking during the online learning environment. However, the researcher hopes that once teachers are back from the COVID-19 pandemic, they will have a comprehensive understanding of technology tools to consider in their pedagogical practices. It is hoped that the post-pandemic will change the way schools and teachers perceive online learning. The sudden teaching practices during the COVID-19 pandemic will undoubtedly drive improvements in the use of technology in schools.

Education Design Research (EDR) focuses on producing a Blended Web Mobile Learning (BWML) to increase the students’ HOTs of senior high school. The BWML model in each phase is supported by using the MoLearn application (web and mobile version). The results indicate that the BWML model is proven to be valid, practical and effective in improving HOTs of senior high school students. Research implication such as: (1) The BWML model can be used as an alternative to digital-based learning, (2) The BWML model can be a reference for developing a hybrid learning model in COVID-19 pandemic, (3) The research result can be used as empirical data that web and mobile integration in learning has proven successful.
