Offline web application and quiz synchronization for e-learning activity for mobile browser

Rapid growing of internet applications and users has led the improvement of mobile web browser technology and standards such as HTML5. Recently, HTML5 is turning to be a de facto standard after some of its features has been implemented in major mobile web browsers. Moodle as a web based Learning Management System (LMS) has been popular in academic environment for supporting learning activities and allows teacher giving quiz online. However, some schools do not have an such expensive infrastructure to bring their LMS to the Internet. In addition, at home, some students may have difficulties to get online access. To address such problem, In this paper, we propose a prototype of offline web application and task synchronization in e-learning activity. This system utilizes the offline application capability and web storage of HTML5 enabled mobile web browser to bring an offline user interface to students. Using this system students are able synchronize their mobile phone with campus moodle for task retrieval/submission during their time in campus. and later doing the task at home without having to get online. Besides giving the concept, a prototype has been implemented to show its functionality.
