The use of mobile phone it self is so predigious. Starts from SMS (Short Message Service), to communicate, browsing internet, mobile games and for learning. 
    Mobile phone can use for learning, this evidenced by many students use mobile phone in school. Students said that it's easier when they use mobile phone to share their assessment from teacher by calling or SMS. Besides SMS to share assessment and assignment from teacher, student can also use mobile internet to browse the sites based from education or download mobile application for their learning. The most usable site that student use is Google and Wikipedia. from Google and Wikipedia, they can search some resources to complete their assessment in school. And mobile dictionary is application that students download. By using mobile dictionary, they feel easier and don't have to bother to bring manual dictionary in English course.
