Abstract

Using mobile devices in our daily activities has become elementary. Starting from this, we were interested on the field of mobile learning and how mobile apps can contribute together in order to collaborate with each other and to offer collaborative mobile apps without the need to unify the use of just one application. This paper presents a solution for cooperative m-learning systems based on a new protocol that we have created for this goal. The proposed architecture is composed by three layers. For every m-learning system, a special plug-in is easily created in order to communicate with the global m-learning application. This methodology contributes to create collaborative mobile system and helps all actors in a learning process to increase their concentration on the pedagogical side.
