  • Abstract
    This paper explains the development of a flash-based mobile learning system for learning English as a second language (FML4ESL). Adobe Flash CS3 was used to develop this system which works on smart mobile phones and PDAs that support Adobe Flash Lite. Twelve English lessons were developed for this system. University students at Assumption University tried out this system using their mobile devices for a period of 4 weeks. A pretest, posttest, and surveys were used to evaluate the effectiveness and usability of this system.
