With the recent developments in mobile and web technologies and
mass adoption of mobile devices by the current school generation,
significant opportunities have emerged for e-learning applications.
This article makes a contribution to the design aspects of mediaenhanced
e-learning application. We present a design and
development process for mobile application that seamlessly
combines user-created multimedia with the student’s learning
process in a school environment. We present the evolution of the
application from a simple mobile phone application to a rich tablet
application. We also report on field trial results with real users,
showing that the application is quite easy to learn and use even for
inexperienced users, and present insights from user comments on
using mobile devices and user-created multimedia to aid the
learning process.
