[Xerte] Moodle MObile

[Julian Tenney]

OK, let's try another question.

What would you choose to develop applications and content for mobile devices.

You need to author once, deliver anywhere: same source code has to go to Android, iOS, Blackberry at the very least.
Must have very good support for handling all sorts of external data sources.
Must have currency, so third party developers can be contracted for work if required.
Preferably has decent sized, active community of developers.

Tablets anyone?

My thoughts entirely - Moodle is good stuff but somewhat clunky on a laptop never mind a phone...

Sounds cool but...does anyone really do courses on their 2X2 phone screen? Are there any research numbers anywhere on this?

The MOMO (Mobile Moodle) project is an Add-On to the popular Moodle<http://www.mobilemoodle.org/momo18/course/www.moodle.org> Learning Management System. It brings the ability to implement mobile learning scenarios with Moodle as a backend.
Mobile users install the MOMO client, a JAVA based application, on their mobile phones (or any other JAVA and Internet capable device). Through this client they can access courses wherever they are, which allows completely new scenarios.
Administrators install the necessary MOMO extension on their Moodle server which makes the compatible contents available for mobile usage. They can configure and maintain the system through the integrated administration interface all within Moodle.
Teachers can design courses with either several mobile elements or complete mobile learning scenarios using the tools and methodologies they know from within Moodle.
