Description
Summary:Mobile technology provides new way for students to practice independent learning and break the common way traditional learning process which usually happened in a classroom setting. The advancement and popularity of mobile technology has leads to the various mobile learning applications that act as a tool of learning among students. However, it is important to ensure the design of the mobile learning application suit with the preferred learning styles of the students because it could promote students motivation and encourages them to learn through mobile application. In Ungku Omar Polytechnic, one of the courses offered is operating system and students' achievement towards the course is less encouraging. Advancement of mobile device technology and higher usage among students lead to an initiative design a prototype of mobile learning application of operating system course at Ungku Omar Polytechnic. Before the design phase started, the students' preferred learning style was acquired first and based on the result of the questionnaires, the most preferred learning style while learning the operating system course is visual. Once the preferred learning style has been obtained, the functional and design requirements have been gathered through an interview with students who are registering the course. Result from the interview has been analyzed and the prototype of mobile learning application of operating system course has been designed by using wireframe tool namely as Pencil. At the end of the study, feedback from students has been gathered to get their comments and suggestion to improve the function and design of prototype of mobile learning application of operating system course.
