For 15 sessions, members in the experimental group were accomplished a training based on the ubiquitous learning tools (Podcast and TED Talks) to develop their EFL listening comprehension and digital literacy skills while those in the control group received their regular instruction. Results of the study showed that the experimental group students outperformed their control group peers; they showed high levels of listening comprehension as well as digital literacy skills compared to their control peers. Consequently, it could be concluded that the usage of ubiquitous learning tools has a significant effect on third -year prospective at the English section, Faculty of Education.
