MLE-Moodle turns your Moodle installation to a mLearning platform (mobile learning / learning with mobile phones). We use the
MLE (
Mobile Learning Engine), which is a special mLearning application for
mobile phones, to access your Moodle installation. But you can use the standard
web-browser on your
mobile phone too, to access your Moodle installation. You can use most of the standard Moodle activities (eq: quiz, survey, lesson, assignemnts, ...) and resources (html-page, text-page, multimedia, directories, ...) on your mobile phone as well as additional new (mLearning) activities, such as:
- Mobile Learning objects (offline learning on the phone)
- A flashcard trainer (after the Leitner-System, with a synchronization feature for the mobile phone; eg. used for: for vocabulary learning)
- Mobile Tags (create special barcodes for activities or resources, if the user takes a picture of this barcode, he is redirected to the activity/resource)
Furthermore the Moodle
messaging system works on the mobile phone too and we have some new Moodle-blocks. On of these blocks allows the easy installation of the mobile phone software on your phone (preconfigured for your Moodle installation).
You can try it out with a phone emulation software, found here:
http://mle.sourceforge.net/demo_mle_moodle.php and our Demo MLE-Moodle installation, where you can create content and tested it with the web-browser:

Here are some screenshots, how it could look like, if you access your Moodle server with the web-browser on the phone:
