Moodle for mobile

Fulfilling my promise

Many universities use in Learning process LMS Moodle. One time I was interested in the question: Is it possible to get full access to the system from a mobile phone. As a result of the work I found a few apps that allow this. With their materials, I made a report at the beginning of 2012 at the MOOC "Distance Learning from A to Z".

For the participants of the our course, I translated the presentation. I also give a brief information about these applications.

1. MLE-Moodle is an out-of-the-box mobile Learning (m-Learning) system, designed for mobile Phones. http://mle.sourceforge.net/mlemoodle/index.php?lang=en&page=start.php

It is realized as a plugin for the open-source Learning Management System (LMS) Moodle. Just copy the MLE-Moodle files to your Moodle-installation and your eLearning system is now a m-Learning system too.

So with MLE-Moodle you can enhance your eLearning system to mobile Learning, and can learn either with your mobile phone (m-Learning) or with your PC / Notebook (eLearning).

On the mobile phone you can either use the built-in mobile browser to access MLE-Moodle. Or you can use a special mobile phone application which was designed for learning on mobile phones (called MLE phone client).

2. MoodleTouch (mTouch) is the first native iOS (iPhone, iPod Touch and iPad)application for Moodle: http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/mtouch/id366785596?mt=8
