Description
Summary:This project named "Open Source Implementation of M-learning for Primary Schools in Malaysia". It focuses on learning using mobile devices by attempting UPSR (Ujian Pencapaian sekolah Rendah) Mathematics' quizzes for year 5 and 6 primary schools' students which were posted by the teachers, plus the ability to track the students' quizzes progress regularly. Students tend to avoid doing academic exercises because of the problem on the weight of the exercise books, as well as the limited time for both students and teachers to monitor the academic progress. This project solved the problems by implementing a learning environment using small and portable mobile devices as well as the implementation of automated mobile graph on the system itself for the purpose of progress tracking. Completed system were tested by the selected target users (primary school students) where the result showed that the students who use this system perform well in the test conducted (75 % of the group scored 80% to I 00% ), compared to the one who used traditional learning approach (50% of the group scored 80% to I 00% ). As a conclusion, this project had created a new exciting learning environment in Malaysia as well as being accepted based on the users' response.
