Learning anywhere anytime with mobile devices

Mobile learning is defined as the intersection of mobile computing and e-learning. Mobile devices such as laptops, PDAs, and smart phones connected to wireless networks enable mobility and facilitate mobile learning. Especially in campus environment, mobile learning is used to deliver electronic learning materials to students anyplace and anytime as well as to deliver electronic training to teachers anywhere and anytime. This paper proposes a new approach for replaying lecture recordings on mobile devices such Personal Digital Assistant (PDA). It designs and implements a prototype. A survey on users´ usability and acceptance of the prototype, where replaying lecture recordings on PDA was compared to replaying on laptop, was conducted. The result shows that PDA is a good device and being accepted as a complementary tool for learning. The prototype fully supports the recorded lectures and is proved as a stable version to replay lecture recordings.
