Abstract: In the past 20 years mobile-assisted language learning (MALL) has received a great deal of attention. However, most MALL application studies are on a trial basis which lasted for a short time, and there is a lack of MALL projects which integrate mobile learning into curriculum with a long implementation duration. This study explores the effect of MALL with smartphones and supported by a tutoring system CSIEC in a curriculum-integration project across nine semesters in English as a foreign language context. Results show that mobile learning is effective for learning English as a foreign language when integrated into the curriculum and the overall effect size is large. Implications for MALL applications are discussed.
