Design and Implementation of a Smart System for School Children Tracking

Abstract

What the world is seeing about the deterioration of public safety in various cities and the increase in the rate of crimes against children makes parents constantly worry about their children when they go to school and until they return from it. To dispel these fears, the idea emerges to create an application that allows parents to know the whereabouts of their children and notify them with a message if the children exceed the area specified for them. In this application, the process of discovering the child’s precise location in a specific area is carried out by determining the latitude and longitude using the GSM radio navigation system. After that, the mobile receives all the information about the location via the GSM modem. A GSM modem has been programmed to achieve communication between the modem and the child by two methods of communication through which the child’s location is determined. Ensuring that the child’s location is known at any time and informing the person responsible for tracking him is the primary function of this system. This device connects to the child in an appropriate manner and it turns on when the child exits the designated area for him, after which a message is sent to the tracker. The device can be triggered using a short messaging system (SMS) where the user can communicate remotely to the GSM using a mobile.

The effect of mobile application programming on the educational process

“…In [15][16][17][18], authors emphasized that e-learning is one of the comfortable means of education for learners as it provides educational content in any place and time and this is not possible to fully achieve it in the traditional study style in the classroom. In [19][20][21], they emphasized that the learner can bypass the state of boredom in e-learning and focus on important things, unlike traditional education in the classroom where everyone is forced to focus at the same time. While it was found that e-learning is characterized by flexibility and the ability to cover its expenses in a possible way for learners through the study conducted by [22,23].…”

Smart Learning based on Moodle E-learning Platform and Digital Skills for University Students

“…Ensuring that digital skills keep pace with the advancement of technology is extremely difficult given the dynamic nature of information and communication technology, which is reflected in the rapid development of networks, service delivery methods, and speed rates of technology and devices. Today, multiple services are provided through smart devices using converged networks to obtain smart education and learning [19][20][21]. So, via the digital transformation, ushered in by the Internet of Things, artificial intelligence and big data analysis, has begun to bring innovation to learning methodologies and tools through "smart learning" practices, which the integration of smart devices and smart technologies provides a powerful way to enhance and extend the learning experience [22].…”
