E-learning
has been adopted broadly by various institutions all over the world. However,
the expansion of mobile devices creates a new form of E-learning, called
m-learning. M-learning encompasses all learning delivered via mobile devices.
It helps to make the learning process learner-centered by promoting “Bring Your
Own Device” (BYOD) model of learning technology. Despite ever increasing demand
for it among students, m-learning lacks teachers and/or institutions confidence
who are accustomed to use e-learning systems such as LMSs. Moodbile project was
the first attempt to find a moderate solution between the two parties by the
integration of m-learning initiatives with LMSs. On the other hand, M-learning
has unique security requirements especially for conducting exams. For that, we
have designed a Secure Exam Management System (SEMS) as a service extension to
Moodbile. SEMS enables mobile exams to be conducted securely (as cheat-free as
possible). This paper discusses the design principles of SEMS. It also presents
the results of a survey about students/teachers acceptance and confidence to
adopt such exam systems.
