The importance of technology is incontrovertible in today’s
world. The effects of it surround the life of human in everywhere and every
time. The young students, especially pre-school period children, learn how to
share and socialize, to make cooperation and take place in teamwork. During
pre-school period they learn new things and their talents. Children have the
chance to learn new things which can affect their grown period. They learn how
to use their brain for learning new things and so they can be aware of their
talents with the help of this study. In
this work, we describe a novel M-Learning process with our M-learning tool.
This process is especially developed for pre-school children. The main factor
in this process is using the technological devices which affect the education
period of children and the teaching period of teachers. This tool also gives a
chance for the parents to observe the improvements that occur in the learning
capacity of their children and children also can have fun while they are
learning new things.
