Abstract
This project is about design and implementation of web based mobile learning (M-learning) in
Ethiopia. There are basically three types of learning methods: conventional learning, distance
learning and electronics learning. Electronics learning can be divided into two: E-learning and Mlearning.
This project focussed primary on M-learning.
In this project work, we have developed a web based application that makes use of the availability
of mobile phones. The system enables distance education learners to register for courses, add/drop
courses, preview any information released by the institutions and download learning materials
using their mobile devices. The system is web based and it needs the internet connection that is
provided by local ISP provider like ETC.
The project is implemented by visual studio 2005 and we use visual C#.net web tools. The
database is developed by Microsoft SQL Server 2000. The system has been tested with different
kinds of aspects and the test result shows successful implementation of the mobile web
application. We use Windows Mobile Professional 6 mobile to test the prototype and the positive
results shows that this web based mobile application can run in all kinds of mobile devices which
have any internet browsers and in addition on any pocket PC.
