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.
