ANDROID BASED COURSE LEARNING MATERIALS APPLICATION WITH EMBEDDED ASSIGNMENT PROTOCOL.

To heighten interaction between students and tutors, an andriod application (app) with inbuilt assignment protocol was carried out in this study. Students can utilize the app to view and download course materials, turn in assignments directly from their mobile devices, after utilizing their matriculation number for registration. Tutors can upload course materials as well as publish assignments, and students can receive real-time notifications. Firebase was utilized for file storage, authentication as well as database management. Major characteristics of the app - notification delivery, file upload and login were evaluated, and the corresponding results obtained affirmed the app's effectiveness and reliability. The developed app offers a digital approach to academic administration, facilitating faster access to educational resources and potentially boosting communication within a university community. Because the architecture of the app was designed with scalability in mind, it can be expanded to incorporate features like automatic grading, student performance data and course registration. This study thus, demonstrates that mobile technology can be utilized in education administration and it serves as a template for schools to follow if they wish to update their academic systems, especially institutions like Bells University of Technology who is on a journey to attain her digital transformation goals.
