Abstract

Smart phones have become the indispensible communication and entertainment device for students and pupils. In this paper we are going to present an approach based upon smart phones in order to offer a possibility to use these phones as learning devices in combination with learning material in a different media as in our case a book. The paper presents the realization of an extensible mobile learning management system with a small footprint, which can be used to easily add exercises to the belonging learning material. Once the learning material has been created, it can be published as a smart phone app. Learners install the app and it will display the related exercises once the user scans their associated QR tags in the book. The system has been exploited from a German publisher and is currently being used for the standard course book about Old and Middle High German at German universities. We will describe the results of our initial user study and the first feedback from the learners using the system.
