BACKGROUND: The relationship between willingness to mobile learning (m‑learning) and educationalachievement was examined in health‑care professional students.MATERIALS AND METHODS: This is a descriptive correlative study that was conducted fromJanuary 2020 to February 2020. A total of 295 students in Saveh University of Medical Sciences inIran were selected through census method. The data were collected using the standard willingness tom‑learning questionnaire. The data collected were analyzed statistically using Pearson’s correlationcoefficient and concurrent regression analysis.RESULTS: The mean score of willingness to m‑learning was 165.55 ± 13.4, which is an indicativeof a higher willingness level in the health‑care professional students for m‑learning. There was apositive and significant relationship between willingness for m‑learning and educational achievement(r = 0.77, P < 0.01). The predictive variable, i.e., willingness to m‑learning, predicted 53.8% of thevariance of educational achievement (F = 58.801, P = 0.00). Among the variables of willingness tom‑learning, the regression coefficients of perceived ease, attitude, self‑management in learning,educational use, and efficiency of m‑learning were significant (P < 0.05). This means that thesevariables are direct predictors of educational achievement.CONCLUSIONS: Willingness to m‑learning had a positive and significant relationship with educationalachievement. Although this study was performed just before the corona outbreak, paying attentionto the results of this study can be helpful for students, faculty members, and policymakers in fillingthe educational gap during the coronavirus disease 2019 outbreak.
