Abstract

Nowadays, due to easiness and expansion in property of smart mobile devices, it is becoming inevitable for mobile applications to have an important role in higher education systems. The Egyptian public universities are facing the problem of students’ large number enrolled in each year. Thus, we lack proper communication between educators and learners. Mobile learning can solve that problem, and it enables adjustment of the curriculum to meet students' learning time and life situations. It provides different solutions better than traditional educational methods. Students and professors could exchange educational material or information even if they are not in the same class. Furthermore, the cost of universities’ materials reduced, as all course materials can be found online through mobile applications. This paper proposes a mobile learning system named “Easy-Edu.” The proposed system intended to make the learning process easier, focus on students’ needs, and encourage communication and collaboration between students and professors and supports collaborative scenario-based learning for university students. Unlike other traditional systems, the proposed “Easy-Edu” was built using an Agile-based approach that delivers sustainable and high-quality mobile learning system. In addition, it eliminates the chances of absolute system failure and detects and fixes issues faster. Summarily, everything related to the design and implementation of “Easy-Edu” is discussed.

Summary

Introduction

Egypt’s public universities and educational institutes received around 2230314 million enrolled students, in the academic year of 2017-2018 according to the Egyptian Central Agency for Public Mobilization and Statistics [1]. Such problem caused a lack of communication, interaction, and direct engagement between educators and learners. Because of the resilience of mobile learning applications, universities and institutions are trying to develop different mobile learning solutions to support their different courses [2, 3]. Mobile learning improves students’ interest and motivation in learning new courses. Mobile devices and wireless networks technologies are improving continuously with time. Mobile devices and wireless networks technologies are improving continuously with time. e evolution of these technologies helped e-learning to extend to mobile learning [5]
