为了追踪移动辅助语言学习（MALL）近年来的发展，我们分析了2000年至2012年发表的研究，以研究它们的特点和研究趋势。这些研究发表在社会科学引文索引（SSCI）中列出的国际期刊上。使用分类表格对符合时间框架和研究参数的69项研究进行了检查。结果表明，该领域的研究从2008年开始快速增长，并在2012年达到顶峰。在这一时期，使用手机和掌上电脑教授词汇一直很受欢迎。相当多的研究没有将其研究建立在任何理论框架之上。应用研究和基于设计的研究占主导地位，这些研究通常采用定量研究方法。在此基础上，提出了今后研究和实践的方向。
In order to trace how mobile assisted language learning (MALL) has evolved in recent years, we analysed studies published from 2000 to 2012 to examine their characteristics and research trends. These studies were published in international journals listed in the Social Sciences Citation Index (SSCI). Sixty-nine studies that fit the time frame and study parameters were examined using a classification form. The results indicate that research in the field increased at a fast pace from 2008 and reached a peak in 2012. Teaching vocabulary with the use of cell phones and PDAs has remained popular over this period. A significant number of studies did not base their research on any theoretical framework. Applied and design-based research dominated the field, and these studies generally adopted quantitative research methods. Reflecting on these results, we suggest directions for future research and practices in the field.
