Mobile Learning Application for Basic Router and Switch Configuration on Android Platform

AbstractThis paper presents the design and development of Mobile Learning Application for Basic Router and Switch Configuration on Android Platform using Java Programming Language to help students in computer networking courses at the Department of Computer Technology and Networking, Faculty of Computer and Mathematical Sciences, University of Technology Mara, Malaysia. Our approach is to incorporate multimedia animations concept with command langguage to create the pervasive learning environment in presenting the Router and Switch Configuration systematically. With this mobile learning application, student could learn at his or her own pace, anywhere and anytime. This mobile learning application intends to complement the current traditional classroom and e-learning systems. Initial testing has shown that a well-presented multimedia animations capability that is delivered through a mobile phone has a great potential to promote and enhance learning process
