Mobile phones constitute a technology that has become part of our everyday usage. In the absence of an in-depth evaluation of mobile phone appropriation and its utilization, this paper investigates and reviews the usage of mobile phones in the context of pervasive learning. This paper reviews mobile phone usage and associated applications, as well as the negative impact. This paper also covers pervasive computing, and mobile pervasive learning technologies, applications and issues. Fifty-five papers were selected in the review process. The assimilation of pervasive learning with mobile phones marks an incredible venture forward. The incorporation of mobile technology and pervasive learning can enhance the effectiveness and accessibility of learning activities in the future. This new innovation has changed the conventional idea of learning in as much as we are now continually surrounded and submerged in learning encounters. © 2015 Elsevier Ltd.
