Abstract
We present a tablet-based synchronous mobile learning system that allows remote students to join a distance learning session with their tablets in real time. The system enables students to watch the live video of an instructor as well as slide with annotation. It also allows students to ask questions with text during a lecture. We performed a usability assessment of the system by having a group of students test the prototype and conducting a survey. The result shows that the students feel that usefulness and ease of use of the system is above the normal level.
