Definition of Terms
Smartphone
“A smartphone is a mobile phone with highly advanced features. A typical smartphone has a high-
resolution touch screen display, WiFi connectivity, Web browsing capabilities, and the ability to accept
sophisticated applications. The majority of these devices run on any of these popular mobile operating
systems: Android, Symbian, iOS, BlackBerry OS and Windows Mobile. (“What is a Smartphone?”,n.d)
Pie Chart
“A pie chart displays data, information, and statistics in an easy-to-read 'pie-slice' format with varying
slice sizes telling you how much of one data element exists. The bigger the slice, the more of that data
was gathered.” (Alcocer, p. 1)
Method
Mixed Methods
“Mixed methods research is a methodology for conducting research that involves collecting,
analysing and integrating quantitative (e.g., experiments, surveys) and qualitative (e.g., focus
groups, interviews) research. This approach to research is used when this integration provides a
better understanding of the research problem than either of each alone.” Ltd, W. O. (n.d.).
