Summary: | Newer development in mobile technology allows the use of hand phone which can be extended not only to communication but
also to other personal life styles such as digital references in a form of dictionary or encyclopaedia, to the users for just in time,
just enough, and just for me access of information. One of the areas that received vast attention nowadays by educationists
and learners alike is the area of Islamic banking and finance. The expansion of Islamic banking practices through various local
financial institutions leads to the need in understanding the terminologies used in the industry in “just-in-time” manner due to
the dynamism of the field itself. In view of this scenario, the present research seeks to shed some light using a workable model
for developing a purposeful mobile Islamic banking terminology glossary app in a more convenient way and made it operational
via devices such as iPhone, iPad or any Android-based smart gadgets. It further explored the prototype development and its
implementations for mobile accessibility by providing multilingual glossary of Islamic banking and finance terminologies (MalayArabic-English).
This paper reports the findings of the need analysis stage, inclusive of mapping users’ device type, Internet
accessibility, reasons for owning mobile devices, delivery and user interface, and preferred features to be embedded in the
mobile app. |
