Abstract

Mobile learning has been utilized to varying degrees in the teaching and learning of various subjects at different stages of basic education, and its application in the English learning has already reached a popular stage. Teachers' attitudes towards mobile learning are crucial, but there are currently few research results on the influencing factors of it. Based on previous research results, the purpose of this study is to explore the relationship between organizational support and teachers' attitudes towards mobile learning. The study used a questionnaire to collect relevant data on the support perceived by 127 English teachers in basic education from three aspects: equipment and facilities, training access, and administrative assistance, as well as their attitudes towards mobile learning. Through statistical analysis of the data, we obtained the following findings. First, support for equipment and facilities does not have a significant impact on teachers’ attitudes (p > 0.05); second, the training access provided by the organization has a significant impact on teachers’ attitudes towards mobile learning (p < 0.01); and finally, the impact of administrative assistance on teachers’ attitudes towards mobile learning is the most significant (p < 0.01). Based on these research findings, the study proposes corresponding educational implications.
