International Seminar - SEIE 2011 (Seminar on Electrical, Informatics and It's Education) has been held successfully today. This Seminar has been held in Graha Cakrawala, State University of Malang, Indonesia, by Electrical Engineering Major. I'm so proud because I'm one of the student in that major. And I also the participant (not author) of this seminar.





Theme of this seminar is Mobile Technology and its Application on Education with Keynote Speaker is Prof. Dr. Kohai Arai form Saga University Japan. Its about converting from E-Learning to Mobile-Learning, very interesting topic to me, because I'll be a teacher someday. And now I'll try to share my experience in that seminar, happy reading.


What is E-Learning?
E-learning comprises all forms of electronically supported learning and teaching. The information and communication systems, whether networked learning or not, serve as specific media to implement the learning process. You can use Moodle to create E-learning server. You can download Moodle for free, in this site : http://moodle.org/downloads/

What is Blended Learning?
Blended Learning is the way to teach and to learn through combination or 'blending' of multiple methods and learning-styles together. Prof Kohai recommend us to use the combination of online and face-to-face basis approaches for teach and learn.

Why Blended Learning?
Because Blended Learning is possible to provide flexible and alternative learning opportunities for students even if students are out the classroom and if after class. So the students can study anytime, anywhere.

Whats the Problem?
Many University develop e-learning web page to provide online learning course and materials. The problem is, not all students have computer or laptop. Almost all student have mobile phone. But, those e-learning content are not accessible through mobile handled device such as mobile phone, PDA, SmartPhone or iPhone.

Whats the Solution?
The solution is adapting e-learning content into mobile learning content which enable to view e-learning contents on mobile device. With some technical process E-Learning Content can be delivered to Mobile Learner.

Summary
Module Based Content Adaption method is appropriate for adapting composite E-Learning content that composed from independent learning object with separate presentation and data layer. Compatible (at least) with 94.5% of current mobile browser used in mobile devices.
