Abstract

Mobile devices nowadays are widespread and provide great multimedia capabilities, which make the delivery of mobile learning a more realistic approach since it can provide just in time learning on the move. Currently, students in some universities can watch live lectures or tutorials on their university website after a registration process. Some students who face difficulties in attending their lectures or tutorials due to living in remote areas would like to watch missed lecture/tutorial by downloading lecture/tutorial videos for their mobiles. This paper describes an M-learning and University Student Organizer (MUSO) application which offers solutions to these problems. MUSO is developed using Java 2 Micro Edition (J2ME) which is supported by most available mobile handsets. This application uses the internet through GPRS or WiFi connections. MUSO uses the concept of client-server architecture which gives the ability to have large data sets and decreases the computation processes on the mobile phones. This paper presents a test case for MUSO on a real university.
