Özet: Curriculum and course books have an important role in teaching process. But they are not sufficient as course materials on their own. It is known that Information Technologies make big impacts on teaching process. As these technologies have become mobile today, it is a necessity to develop and use mobile learning materials. In FATIH project it is aimed to enhance the information technology infrastructure and students to have technological tools. But in the project process, the lack of materials which students can use, is remarkable. Lately usage of mobile phones and tablet computers is increasing because of the Internet. Increase in mobile internet usage led to developing with different tools than traditional web sites uses. In this context instead of traditional web pages, developing and using mobile applications is inevitable. Developing mobile content process consists of 3 basic levels. These are: design, develop and publish. Each level is split up into own work routines. In design process, especially writing scenario and designing storyboard are essential steps of work routine. In developing process different methods and tools can be used. Producing products for both mobile applications and for internet is a preference criteria in choosing developing tool. Mobile content can be prepared by basic programming knowledge. For these content software like “Adobe Flash”, “Creative Book Builder”, “TouchAppCreator”, “EduCreation”, “Explain Everything” can be used. In this research acquisition-based mobile contents of the unit "Force and Motion" which is included in the curriculum of 9th grades are prepared using “Adobe Flash CS6” software. This application will be the first and an example for other units. Developed content was used by teachers and students and their opinions have been taken into consideration
