Abstract
M-learning systems have become the order of the day for universities in countries like
Uganda to conduct studies to their students. The main attention towards M-learning is the
increase in the number of mobile devices such as mobile phones, PDAs, Smart Phones, laptops,
and iPads as well as enhancements in the technological capabilities of these devices. The
purpose of this study was to develop a model to enhance students’ intention to adopt and use
mobile learning. A number of factors have hindered the adoption and use of M-learning. Various
solutions have been put forward but they have not adequately addressed the issue of adoption
and use of M-learning in Ugandan Universities. In developing countries, M-learning adoption and
use is also constrained by lack of information about its requirements. The need therefore
remains, to determine requirements and customize existing M-learning adoption models to suit
the needs of universities in developing countries.
