The objective of the project is to develop a mobile learning application for smart phones. This could be used by educational institutions for learning and training purposes. It could also be used for on-the-go communication for students and academics, and for information sharing. It can serve as a medium to facilitate mlearning both in assembling responses from students to specific assessment tasks and for returning feedback to individual students. The mobile application would also integrate capabilities so the students would be able to access presentations by professionals through the internet connection on their mobile devices. The students could also interact with each other and the tutors by posting comments and sharing photos, images, voice and video through this application. The lecturer could facilitate and moderate debates while students could respond and learn while on the go. The application would also be used as a digital marketing channel for promoting educational programmes to potential candidates.
