Description The rapid expansion in the use of tablets and other mobile devices pushes away personal computers and laptops. This statement is especially true in the case of regular users, who use these devices primarily for entertainment and occasional communication via email, for example. More advanced users, among which we can place also students, need personal computers for work, writing essays, or for using specialised programs, depending on the field of study. Even so, many students own both the computer and a mobile device, such as a tablet. It is therefore not unusual that a student chooses to use the tablet for elearning because of more comfortable reading or the possibility to study anywhere and anytime. Unfortunately,most mobile devices don’t support echnologies needed for displaying interactive applications or complicates playing videos in an internet browser. The aim of this paper is to present possible solutions that can make the elearning content available for the vast majority of users regardless ofthe device used. Shows specific system solutions, which were based on the results of research designed and implemented.
