Research projects leading to MPhil/PhD are available for those who are interested in pursuing a career in teaching/research in higher educational institutes. Currently, the following projects are undertaken by the Network Communications Research Group
- Secure mobile learning environments
In this research, we propose a secure open-source mobile-based system that can be easily integrated into the Moodle LMS. Initially, a database is integrated into the Moodle that holds usernames, passwords and enrolment keys for the courses. Authenticated teachers can create text messages using a mobile device connected to the Internet. Authenticated students can perform learning activities such as content downloading, group discussions, online quizzes and assignments in the mobile learning environment using their mobile devices.
