Abstract
With the recent developments in mobile and web technologies and mass
adoption of mobile devices by the current school generation, significant
opportunities have emerged for e-learning applications. This article makes a
contribution to the design aspects of media-enhanced e-learning application.
We present a design and development process for mobile application that
seamlessly combines user-created multimedia with the student’s learning
process in a school environment. We present the evolution of the application
from a simple mobile phone application to a rich tablet application. We also
report on field trial results with real users, showing that the application is
quite easy to learn and use even for inexperienced users, and present
insights from user comments on using mobile devices and user-created
multimedia to aid the learning process.
