How are students using smart devices?
"I found out about these applications solely from being interested in technology ...I feel the
usefulness of these applications
has not been portrayed by the university ... It would
beneficial for the university
and to its students
if
more information
about similar applications was given to students and a
greater emphasis
on using them [apps] was made, regardless of what course..." SHU Student 2013
