Abstract :
Using primary components and factor analysis (PCFA) and its advantages, the mobile learning terminal (MLT) and its evaluation standard are analyzed. Based on PCFA model and the scores by experts, the analysis results are computed reflecting main function indexes of evaluation standard in MLT. Through case study, it can be seen that some indexes (standards) play very important role in analyzing and assessing main function indexes and all the evaluation standards should be considered because evaluation standard in MLT depends on the interaction. Through analysis and deduction, it is concluded that, under the premise of minimizing the data loss, the application of PCFA in assessing evaluation standard in MLT approved to be practicable.
