In 1980s, laptop evolution started and people has used laptop as their portable computer. Laptop is useful for daily purpose as well as for education. In April 3, 2010, Steve Job introduced iPad and revolutionized tablet era. Adaptation of mobile device in engineering field, science, health care & education gradually increases. In universities and school, many students and lecturer has used mobile device such as tablet and phone. In Singapore, Nanyang Girl’s High School has adapted iPad in their learning system. Lecturers can create textbooks using ibook authors and teach with interactive materials. River Vally High School has already started using custom mobile suite developed by NCS Group. It consists of content & annotation sharing, forum activities & so on. That platform is based on iOS and web-based system. This project is aimed for mobile device adaptation in university as well as in school and create better learning environment for students & professors. ! Students and professors can use iPad in their projects, studies, meeting and so on. It can be used as teaching material such as physics simulation & electrical power lines simulation. Professors can use it to teach to students interactively. It is important to have one complete mobile suite for students and professors so that they have everything they need and don’t need to use many application. ! In this project, all-in-one mobile solution is implemented for school and university. Professor can use it in the classroom to teach wirelessly and annotate without converting file format. In addition, professor can create course video in the application for E-learning. For student response system, it is now available for students and professors to use on their mobile device as well as on their computer. In this project, iOS will be used as main platform and development on iPad will be focused.
