This paper reports an investigation of a mobile learning technology used across sectors and internationally. The technology developed by the University of Huddersfield is the Wireless Response System – WRS. In order to evaluate WRS, learning activities were conducted in Economics, Engineering, Language and Law departments of European universities and Chinese University, including Huddersfield University in UK. The data collected from the studies evidence the success of the technology and its application. The university students were interested in using it, and we conclude that the WRS can assist classroom teachers with students of different disciplines and countries, especially in observing students’ feedback, concentration and confidence
