The popularity of mobile devices and the current growth of social media allow to apply mobile social media learning in higher education. This systematic review gives an overview of the current usage of mobile social media learning, the use cases, barriers, advantages and difference between personal social media and higher education apps within a learning context. The main findings of this paper indicate that social media is a good tool for collaborative purposes, communication purposes, resource sharing and accessing. However, social media use cases are limited at the current state, as higher education apps provide more specific and learn-based functionalities. Furthermore, using social media in a formal way helps to make the education process more personal by having a direct connection with instructors. However, there are still barriers that institutions have to overcome, which include the social media integration models into higher education. This paper, therefore, also discusses the existing integration frameworks and proposes an extension of its current model.
