Engaging in educational activities, virtually anywhere, creates learning opportunities outside the confines of a traditional classroom. Nursing faculty may need guidance on how to effectively introduce mLearning activities. The impact on learning from mobile devices is pronounced and could be augmented by developing pertinent activities for prelicensure nursing students to facilitate academic success.
