“…This learning is called "Brick-and-Mortar" learning [1]. Another more contemporary form of teaching is what is known as: Blended learning [2] ; providing the same method of brick-and-mortar learning but adding online resources for learners to access, study on their own, and are potentially assessed for it online.…”

We live in a new era where education is not anymore restricted to grouping individuals in a room and feeding them information. We also live in the same era where we deal with our handheld devices more than any other normal human interaction. Why then don't we implement a new "environment" to deliver education to our handheld devices that we hold and interact with? We need to free the process of education from physical presence to "virtual" presence through the power of the Internet, and this is the motivation driving us to solve our problem. We approach the new paradigm of the World Wide Web to have a web-based application for the instructor to access to be able to create and edit m-Learning objects and upload it to the assigned remote database, where the learner gets a notification for new objects to download to their handheld client application to learn and be assessed in. Previous technologies have been patented and applications have been done to solve the same problem, but we stand with the advantage of webavailability. The sole purpose of our work presented in this document is to enrich the process of education. Keywords-m-Learning; blended learning; web-based.
