The information age provides new learning methods and rich resources for foreign language teaching but also brings new problems and challenges. In the era of rapid development of information technology, traditional classroom learning can no longer satisfy students' English learning needs. Therefore, Information Communication Technologies were introduced into the classroom. Mobile Learning is a learning style that can happen at any time, anywhere, with the help of handheld mobile devices. Compared with E-learning and Distance Learning, Mobile Learning emphasizes learning through electronic mobile devices, mobile communication networks and wireless networks.
