Abstract
Mobile technologies have increasingly become pervasive in everyday life over the past few decades. As a result of their affordability and wide availability, mobile devices have become commonly used by several people. Efforts are being made by researchers and institutions to provide infrastructure, content, and resources related to the integration of mobile devices into learning environments are worthy of note. These have led to the provision of more learner motivation, better interaction between learners and teachers, thus leading to an improved educational experience. This book chapter emphasizes on the benefits of mobile learning and also presents a case study of the development of a mobile learning system that facilitates interactive learning in a University environment. The system provides for the student, mobile access to various functions that can improve the process of learning including assessment and provision of feedback to learners. The system was tested and evaluated with satisfactory results.
