User-interface design framework for E-learning through mobile devices

Abstract

User-interface plays an important role in e-learning. Good and user-friendly interfaces help in better understanding of the system and reduces the cognitive load of a learner during the process of learning. The advancement in mobile technology has influenced a number of users to learn using mobile and handheld device that provides not only flexibility of learning but also allow them for learning at any-time and any-where or on the go. This has already created a requirement of a user-interface design framework for mobile devices that can help the designers to design e-learning interface for the same. This paper proposes a user-interface design framework after understanding of the requirements at the level of a user for the mobile and handheld devices.
