Abstract
It is very convenient to have a smart dictionary that can be taken everywhere we go. A regular dictionary contains numerous words, making it difficult to use in the traditional way, as it takes a lotof time to search for just one word. By having a specific application that helps students find unfamiliar terms, a significant amount of their time can be saved. As for BEVA students, they encounter many unfamiliar terms. The idea behind creating the EVABrainiac application was to alleviate the students' burden, allowing them more time to study. We selected 35 respondents from theBEVA program to answer the survey for data collection. The survey asked the students whether they understood the terms they were learning. Multiple-choice questions were given to the respondents to gather data on the most effective ways to understand unfamiliar terms easily. Three sets of answers were provided for the respondents to choose from: agree, disagree, or have mixed feelings about the development of this application to enhance their understanding. The results showed that 20 out of 35 respondents did not understand the terms taught by the lecturer. The most effective way reported by the students to understand the terms was through visual illustrations. Additionally, 32 respondents agreed that the development of the application would further their understanding. The creation of this application will greatly assist BEVA students in comprehending the terms they have learned in class.
