Improving E-Learning Using Distributed User Interfaces [link]Paper  abstract   bibtex   
As we can observe day after day the m-Learning methodology has become an exciting art of using mobile technologies to enhance learning skills. Mobile phones, PDAs, Pocket PCs and the Internet can be joined together in order to engage and motivate learners, anytime anywhere. The society is entering a new era of m-Learning, which makes important to analyze and innovate the current educational tools so they can be used correctly and as it is needed in the application domain of the work “learning”. This article proposes the way in which MPrinceTool, that aims to improve the deficiencies identified in the usual analysis, can provides a new means to interact via mobile, desktop and Web by applying distributed user interfaces to the application design, so it facilitate users to participate in educational activities and communication with working groups. These advantages will be clearly adapted by our tool and part of it will be explained.
