Abstract: Education plays a vital role in the development of every country in this world. Although, it is a fundamental right of every citizen of the country to acquire education and it is also the responsibility of the governments to provide and create such opportunities to obtain an education. But unfortunately, the governments of developing countries are failed to deliver a strong policy on “education for all†, due to their financial constraints and lack of infrastructural planning. In order to address this issue, Smartphones are used to spread education in these areas. In this research paper, we propose a solution based on the application of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) such as Smartphone which provides an opportunity to spread education sitting at distinct places where it is even difficult to establish a school. Moreover, a comparison is drawn between the traditional and the proposed model.
