Abstract

With the development of 3G & distance learning technology, m-learning (mobile-learning) has been applied widely in distance education. This paper proposes one m-learning system model for the taxi driver based on the GPS (global positioning system) receiver/transmitter system installed in taxi. This system will offer a platform model through which drivers may easily retrieve much knowledge and realtime information of location available at any time and any place. It will not only make the everyday life of drivers more fun, but also improve urban traffic
