DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A VIRTUAL CLASSROOMSYSTEM
2015
In the last few decades, education has witnessed some advances in technologies involving computeraided
learning that promises to drastically change the methods of teaching and learning. The World
Wide Web has played a major role in information storage and dissemination in the educational
community. Conventional classroom based teaching involves the delivery of course materials by the
lecturer in a particular place at a defined time. Hence it imposes a constraint of time and place on both
the instructor and the student. Due to human factor arising from the traditional classroom method, the
lecturer may not always be able to put in optimum effort towards preparing and delivering course
materials. There may also be inconsistencies in the pedagogy and learning style due to repetitive
nature of teaching/learning. The objective of this paper is to develop a virtual classroom system to
enhance learning on campus. The system was developed using PHP and MySQL as server side
programming and database respectively. The web-based virtual classroom provides a web enabled
interactive model for e-learning in which the course material is presented using multimedia and
hypermedia
