A Grid Service Oriented Platform for Mobile Learning of English
Abstract: In this study, a grid framework for mobile learning of English was proposed to solve the difficulties of sharing learning resources distributed on different e-Learning platforms. A grid service framework was generated from web services and grid technology which support well services descriptions and management mechanism. The m-Learning grid is based on grid service technology combined with mobile devices and relevant technology to support an m-Learning platform. TME GAIA is used as grid engine to implement the platform. In the experiment, English learning objects followed the SCORM standard were produced with access to learning via Nokia 7210 mobile phone.
