This paper discusses the issues involved in developing mobile assisted language learning (MALL) materials based on the materials development process for a Leonardo da Vinci (LdV) Transfer of Innovation Project entitled Mobile Learning for Young People at Risk Groups (MLARG). The materials were developed for Grade 9 and 10 students in tourism vocational high schools in Turkey to be used as supplementary self-access materials supporting English learning at school. The paper provides a detailed account of the decisions taken to develop the materials as well as the pedagogical challenges that were faced during the development process.
