Mobile devices such as cell phones become the widest instrument handed in the students daily activities including browsing Internet and sending e-mails. Several countries such as Japan and US have already applied it in the education and learning processes due to its outstanding characteristics including portability and accessibility. In this work, a mobile-quiz application is suggested and described to facilitate the assessment process inside the high-density classrooms and to increase the interactivity among the instructors and students. Also, a case study of the proposed application in a particular academic Egyptian institution is applied and discussed for the first time with respect of our best knowledge. Basically, three different methods have been suggested to settle this application inside the Egyptian academia according to the available e-learning resources. The preliminary outcomes of the conducted experiment demonstrated the possibility of applying mobile devices within the various academic Egyptian environments.
