Abstract :
With the fast development of mobile computing technology and wireless network, mobile learning (m-learning) is becoming one of the most popular research and development in e-learning areas. This paper proposes a solution of a WAP-based mobile learning system that realizes some functions such as campus communication, teaching announcement management, remote teaching and learning, course score management etc. In this paper, we discuss the overall system design, technical scheme and the key realization technology. Through this system, WAP mobile phone users can obtain teaching information anytime and anywhere. The system has been used in North China University of Technology.
