| 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 “justin-
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 (Malay-Arabic-English). The translation of specific terms from any academic field needs
collaboration between experts both from the language and subject domains. 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. |
