The purpose of this study was to examine and explore the frequency of students\u2019 use of mobile technology for academic and non-academic purposes as well as frequency of students&#8217; online engagement in non-academic activities across formal and informal learning environments (e.g. while in class, while studying, and during personal leisure time) and their overall relationship to students\u2019 self-regulation &amp; metacognitive tendencies and academic achievement\/success. In addressing this purpose five groups of research question were developed.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>To inform my investigation of post-secondary students\u2019 mobile technology use, I developed a conceptual framework that connects three fields of study: (a) Educational technology, (b) Educational psychology, and (c) Student engagement in higher education. The conceptual framework was informed by Bandura\u2019s (1986) social cognitive theory and triadic reciprocal causality model which was developed focusing on personal, behavioral, and environmental factors that constantly interact and influence one another. This study is among the first to explore connections between these various areas and factors in regards to students\u2019 mobile technology use and online engagement across formal and informal learning environments.<\/p>\n<p>Participants consisted of 604 students from a large Midwestern university. I developed the Student Mobile Technology Experience (SMTE) Survey. Survey data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, one-, two-, and three-way ANOVAs, and various factorial repeated measures ANOVAs (p &lt; 0.05). Significant correlations were found across several variables. Likewise, significant differences were found across formal and informal learning environments, frequency of students\u2019 use of mobile technology for academic and non-academic purposes, and frequency of students&#8217; online engagement in non-academic activities. The results of this study have provided insights on personal, behavioral, and environmental factors in regards to students&#8217; use of mobile technology and online engagement. It has also provided quantitative data on relationships between students\u2019 technology use and regulation tendencies in various learning settings and how they may influence student academic achievement\/success. Study findings may inform students\u2019, educators\u2019, and universities\u2019 efforts to improve student engagement, metacognitive awareness, self-regulation, and ultimately, student achievement\/success, in a mobile digital era.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>~Hussam Kashou<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<hr \/>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section i_type=&#8221;fontawesome&#8221; i_icon_fontawesome=&#8221;fa fa-pencil&#8221; add_icon=&#8221;true&#8221; title=&#8221;Research Publications&#8221; tab_id=&#8221;1519793248764-0dcbf2ed-e81f&#8221;][vc_row_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1505805257571{margin: 0px !important;border-width: 0px !important;padding: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1505805271369{margin: 0px !important;border-width: 0px !important;padding: 0px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h5>Research Publications<\/h5>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong>Kashou, H.
