Abstract

The use of mobile phones by all generations; young and old people, and the wide spread of the short message service SMS because of the low cost and ease of use have made us to think of employing mobile phones with SMS to enable the learners to get information and knowledge every where and any time. Learners who visit museums or parks like to learn about the contents and keep the information they acquire for longer time easily. So our system enables the learner to do that by SMS query. The leaner send the number of any item to central phone number (server number) then he receives the answer in short time and low cost.
