This paper introduces a mobile application (app) game for teaching hearing handicapped children. Hearing handicapped children are acknowledged to have problems for teaching and learning. Addressing the problems of teaching hearing handicapped children needs to take the advantages from the recent advanced mobile technology, such as mobile app game. Strategies will vary from the traditional method and by gender and social context. In this paper, we proposed research questions and objective for this study. Then, we discuss the definitions of hearing handicapped, hearing impairment children, their study and learning problems in the literature review. We also proposed a design model for the development of mobile application game that can teach and train the hearing handicapped children to learn new knowledge and for speaking purposes. We also propose the block diagram of the voice recognition mobile apps game design for hearing handicapped children. We adapt the mobile application that leverages some strategies from proven behavior change theories: increasing interest of learning, fostering motivation, self-efficacy and impacting handicapped peoples' attitude to study.
