Summary: | While traveling around the world, a lack of common language is often encountered. This
can be a reason of not truly experiencing the country and the people that one is visiting.
Thus, knowing even just a little of the local language will be a great advantage for any
foreigner visiting or staying in another country. This project focuses on developing a
mobile application that would aid any traveller or foreigner here in Malaysia in learning
to converse in the local language for a better stay. This project also attempts to find the
effective, efficient and interesting ways to learn a language. It is focused in providing
the user the basic conversations that a foreigner will mostly/likely encounter while
visiting or staying in Malaysia. The application is for foreigners who can speak English
and is trying to learn Bahasa Malaysia. The android platform is chosen for the
development of the application and coding with Java and Eclipse were used. The
research and survey done resulted in the findings that using visual-audio sensory and
interactive techniques will provide a more engaging and thus a more effective way of
learning. With this implemented in the application, results of the user acceptance test
showed that with the mobile application, an increase of the competency of the users’
Bahasa Malaysia speaking skills is observed. |
