Abstract
Nowadays, when there is a need to introduce various innovations into the educational process, most efforts are aimed at simplifying the learning process. To that end, electronic textbooks, testing systems and other software is being developed. Most of them are intended to run on personal computers with limited mobility. Smart education is currently very relevant. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a software package that would simplify the learning process in secondary and high schools. The mobile application under consideration was developed on the Android operating system, given the extensive use of mobile devices and a convenient application development toolkit. This mobile application can simplify the students’ acquisition of information that is required for an effective educational process. The mobile application reaches a wide audience that includes both students and teachers of various disciplines. A pedagogical experiment was conducted as part of this research at the S. Toraighyrov Pavlodar State University; the experiment proved the need for and effectiveness of the developed mobile application in the field of education. The software can be used in educational institutions; it can simplify the organization of the educational process significantly.
