Abstract

The educational systems in Egypt follow a trend to advance the
educational process in all its axes, and the research discusses one
of those axes, the most important of which is the educational 
environment, where the research problem lies in the lack of 
optimal utilization of modern technology for intelligent and 
interactive materials in building an attractive educational 
environment characterized by flexibility of its internal elements 
and in line with the physiological and psychological variables at 
that age. In order to achieve the objectives of the study, the 
research deals with the different systems of smart materials and 
their types, the needs of the educational environment in the new
system and how to employ smart materials to create a
contemporary educational environment that suits the new
curricula and systems, and the research extracts a set of results
and recommendations that could enhance the educational
environments by using interactive smart materials.
