Abstract

Mobile telephones are used much more than telephone calls, hence the term “mobile device.” The advent of
the Java engine in mobile phone technology has enabled manufacturers and software developers to provide
an array of applications that rival the laptop computer. Expanded capabilities have led to operating systems
such as Android, which serve as platforms for thousands of applications. Among the many uses for mobile
devices is m-learning. The software development company Idea eLearning Solutions has adapted Moodle for
use on the Android system. Moodle enables teachers to develop and distribute course materials. Using
Moodle on Android, students can access course materials from anywhere at any time. They can take quizzes,
communicate with peers, submit coursework when they are ready, and get immediate feedback. Further
information about this technology can be obtained from
