Background and Objective:Mobile learning is a subset of e-learning and focuses on the use of portable learning tools. This method of learning allows learning regardless of time and place. In learning, students are able to learn from a variety of sources around the world. This enrichment leads to effective and meaningful learning. In addition, learners in this environment can change their learning environment and use a variety of learning experiences. The role of social (communication) and managerial processes (teaching and classroom skills) is also important in this regard. The purpose of this research is Impact use of education model based on mobile learning environments on Social peresence and teaching peresence for Smart schools students in mathematical lesson. Methods: in this research goal, a mixed methods research was used. In this research we used quasi-experimental with pre-test and post-test design with control group. Research statistical population included all girl students studying in Tehran Smart schools. In order to select the sample size using multi-stage cluster sampling method from among smart schools in Tehran, one school was selected and finally 15 people were in the experimental group and 15 people in the control group. Multivariate analysis of covariance was used to test the first and second hypotheses of the study. Findings: The results showed that the application of this model was effective on all dimensions of social presence and teaching presence in the experimental group compared to the control group (in the post-test). Conclusion:. The present study was conducted to investigate the effect of the application of mobile learning model based on social presence and attendance of smart school learners in mathematics. The results of the analysis of research data indicate that the application of mobile learning model has a positive effect on social presence and the presence of smart school students teaching in mathematics. Students in the mobile learning management system scored higher than the other group trained in the traditional environment. This indicates the effectiveness of the environment designed for mobile learning in terms of social presence and teaching.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is defined based on the existence of some implications in attention, inhibition, impulsivity curbing, and the activity level. Often, the problems of children with ADHD in the executive functions may be reflected in all educational, social, and behavioral areas. Smart school is a different educational area that can affect the elementary ADHD students. Accordingly, the main purpose of this study was investigating the effectiveness of smart school curriculum on the hyperactivity symptoms of elementary students. The research method was quasi – experimental and the population included all elementary students of Kerman city (68325 students). The sample includes 162 students (84 student from smart schools and 78 students from public schools) from 2 districts of Kerman. The symptoms of ADHD were evaluated by the parents through Swanson, Nolan and Pelham Questionnaire (SNAP). The results showed that there is a significant difference between the hyperactivity symptoms of the students of smart schools and that of normal schools. Accordingly, smart school curriculum has a positive impact upon the reduction of hyperactivity symptoms, so that it improves the symptoms in these students.

The main goal of this study was to Comparison of Teachers’ Familiarity rate with Technology- Based Teaching Competencies in Smart and Traditional Schools in hamedan in academic year of 2014-2015 and used Survey research method. From (N=437) female teachers based on random stratified sampling 103 female teachers in smart schools and 102 female teachers is traditional schools were selected. For data collecting, a researcher-made questionnaire with 33 items based on Likert scale (5 = strongly agree, 4 = agree, 3 = average, 2 = disagree, 1= completely disagree) was set. The tool content validity was achieved by the opinion of eight experts in educational technology, and its validity according to Cronbach’s alpha was determined.82. Data obtained by descriptive and inferential statistics indicates that the smart school teachers’ familiar level with Technology- Based Teaching Competencies outperformed the teachers in traditional schools. Also smart school teachers, in terms of cognitive knowledge t=6/34, skills t=6/74, emotional t=6/34 and self-efficacy t=4/42, dominated the traditional school teachers.

The research aimed to study the effects of social software application on constructivist classroom Characteristics. Applied research and descriptive - survey was conducted. The population consisted of all male and female teachers in the smart high schools that were selected by random sampling, 103 of them were selected as participants. The research's tool is scale of constructivist classes based on e-learning model Mvvdly and scale of social software applications. The reliability and validity of tools was calculated using the Cronbach's alpha and internal consistency. The method for data analysis, average fixed, correlation and regression analysis and structural equation modeling was conducted. The results showed that the use of social software and constructivist classroom Characteristics in the sample studied is higher than average. The use of social software and constructivist classroom Characteristics are taught positive and significant relationship. The results of regression analysis and path analysis showed that the use of the Internet and intranet affect on constructivist classroom Characteristics.
