\nAbstract: The continuous inventions and evolutions in all information technology fields open new channels and opportunities to enhance teaching and educational methods. In one side, those may improve the abilities of educators to present information in an interactive and media enhanced formats relative to traditional methods. This may help students or learners through offering them the information in channels and methods that can be easier to understand, deal with, and retrieve.  \nOn the other hand, offering those alternative methods of teaching can be helpful particularly forchildren, people with special needs, or students in rural areas where they can have virtual or remote instructors especially for majors that have shortages. The purpose of this study is to investigate the impact of utilizing multimedia technologies on enhancing, or not, the effectiveness of teaching students at early stages in Jordanian primary schools. To achieve this objective a program is developed to test the students' abilities to understand mathematical basic knowledge and skills. Two groups are selected from a local school based on their own class distribution where one group was taught the subject in basic math using a program developed for this purpose. The second class was taught the same subject using traditional methods of teaching ([i.e. direct](i.e. direct) student to child instruction, board, etc.) . Results showed that in such math skills at this age, using programs or multimedia enhanced methods of teaching can be effective in getting students attention especially when cartoon characters are used. Results also showed that there is no significant difference in learning and knowledge skills and information absorption based on gender distribution where results comparison between little boys and girls showed no significant difference in their learning skills.  \nKeywords: Component; Multimedia, interactive learning, ICT education, animation, teaching through programs  \n1 Introduction  \nThere are many parameters that can define and impact students’ abilities in learning. Typically papers focus on parameters or factors that are related to the school and the educational methods as other methods such as self or family oriented factors can’t be controlled by educators or educational systems. Students who have access in their home to new methods and tools of education through computers, interactive learning, etc. may have also different and more potential to absorb those technologies while used in the school educational system.  \nTeaching methods is the subject of many research papers in this field in trying to evaluate methods to improve students’ ability to be interactively be involved in the class. This seems to be particularly necessary in the current Internet, wireless, etc connectivity environment where students can be distracted through having or using those tools. Through providing the ability for students to use those tools in their education besides using them for entertainment or social activities, this may have positive impact on education.  \nThe availability of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) tools and programs spread allover the world. Those tools emerged to be part of not only high class well educated people; rather, Internet, cell phones, etc. are used to help people in their daily life activities: shopping, maps, information about restaurants, land, knowledge, science, etc. They are provided not only through personal computers, rather most of those services can be provided through wireless, GPS, PDA, etc.  \nThe government of Jordan has been concerned about developing and reforming the education system. Similar to education systems around the world, the current education system in Jordan is facing many challenges.
