Mostly, mobile technologies are adopted and used without critical examination of how they help students learn. Nowadays, mobile learning (m-learning) becomes principally imperative challenge for the contemporary higher education management. The aim of this study therefore, is to explore requirements that could influence the students' adoption of m-learning. By employing The Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) and two other potential factors, which are perceived playfulness and self-management of learning, an empirical based framework will be developed to identify adoption requirements of mobile learning. This study involves the university students of Universitas Negeri Makassar as respondents using both email and online-based questionnaire. It is expected that this study will be providing both a theoretical and practical contributions for m-learning adoption and should be of interest to both researchers and practitioners across higher education sectors, particularly in Indonesia. © 2019 International Business Information Management Association (IBIMA).
