Tablet-Based Synchronous Mobile Learning System

摘要

Since most of the existing smartphone-based learning systems are asynchronous, smartphone-based synchronous learning systems became available recently. However, the display of smartphone is not large enough for students to recognize lecture slides with annotation, which can lead to the poor learning experience. Thus, we propose a tablet-based synchronous mobile learning system that allows users to watch the ongoing lecture video and presentation slides with annotation as well as to send text feedback to an instructor on a tablet in real time. Most of the students mentioned that they felt more focused during the lecture with the presented tablet-based learning system because the slide and annotation is easier to recognize and typing questions is easier and quicker than smartphone-based learning system.
