Abstract
As more users are using mobile devices such as smartphones, the need for mobile distance learning system has increased that provides higher accessibility and portability than the traditional desktop-based counterparts. Most of the mobile distance learning systems are asynchronous ones that only allow students to download lecture video and lecture slides. They don’t provide synchronous capability that allows students to participate in an ongoing lecture and interact with the lecturer in real time. Thus, we propose a real-time mobile distance learning system for smartphone. The proposed system allows students to watch and listen to the ongoing lecture with annotated lecture slides in real time with their smartphones. It also provides real-time text-based interaction between students and lecturer.
