Android based student learning system

The advancement and proliferations in Information and Communication Technology (ICTs) has led to migration of learning beyond the traditional classroom Face-to-Face (F2F) to different types of learning such as Distance Flexible Learning (DFL), Electronic Learning (eLearning) and to everywhere and anytime known as Mobile Learning (mLearning). [1] The extensive use of mobile technologies has resulted in increasing interest in mobile learning. [3] In this research project, we explore the challenges the mobile devices has on learning and further discusses the design and implementation of android based student learning tools which is built to enhance learning. The proposed system has many learning tools, mainly the timely notification for different modules such as activities due dates, exam alert and discussion notification. Integrated with MOODLE (course management system) to enhance learning, it also has tutorial tool for students/tutors to reduce paper work and unnecessary workload on the tutors. Other learning tools provided to learners are exam timetable, university news, discussion forum, university and general information service. This proposed system´s tools provides more flexibility, mobility and convenient than eLearning mode which rises routine attention to self-learning modules which might boost learner´s skills in learning.
