چکیده

The use of technology has become an important part of the learning nowadays. There is paucity of studies on Mobile-Assisted learning and its two modes (guided and unguided) on willingness to communicate and reactivity to mistake of EFL learners. For this purpose, 54 Iranian EFL learners with the age range of 21 to 27 at the intermediate level took part in this study. The data gathering tools were Oxford Placement Test (OPT), willingness to communicate (WTC) questionnaire, reactivity to mistake scale, and a semi-structured interview. The students were randomly assigned to one control group and two experimental groups of guided and unguided mobile-assisted task performance. The results showed that using mobile learning in general was effective in English classrooms; however, the role of guided mobile-assisted task performance was highlighted in increasing the level of WTC and a change in the level of reactivity to mistake. The quantitative results represented more positive attitudes towards the strategy.
