Conducted at Qatar University, this case study reports on undergraduate female Arab students' use of the cell phone as a tool to enhance their English language abilities and discusses their perceptions of the educational benefits of using the cell phone video recording feature. The project was conducted over the course of 1 month as part of an academic writing course.
