| Abstract | The widespread of personal computers and the availability of Internet connections have been the core modern-day educational tools that aid teaching and learning, and enhance effective interaction between students and their lecturers. However, despite the appreciable level of recognition of mobile learning as a new innovative educational model in the country, there exists a wide research gap as a result of implementation and adoption. This study examines the behavioral intention of lecturers towards mobile learning and the moderating effect of digital literacy in Saudi Arabian universities. A total of 420 respondents was conveniently sampled, and a structured questionnaire was designed, administered, and analyzed using SPSS?23 and PLS-SEM software. The results obtained showed a direct and significant relationship between all the variables with behavioral intention. It revealed that mobile literacy showed the highest contribution, followed by facilitating conditions, perceived usefulness, and perceived ease of use. However, only years of experience was negatively related. The result of the moderation showed that mobile literacy, moderated with facilitating conditions. Basic ICT literacy is negatively moderated with facilitating conditions and positively moderated with learning expectancy. Based on this outcome, it is recommended that universities can design a policy that will facilitate the enhancement of digital literacy, particularly mobile literacy among lecturers by building their capacity on the use of mobile learning tools for research, teaching, and learning. |
