Malaysia’s flag mobile learning application using augmented reality / Nur Atikah Amran

Nowadays, geographical subject become less interested for young generation. The reason why they do not take seriously about Malaysia’s flag because the conventional delivery medium are not interactive for them to accept. Currently, learning about Malaysia’s flag only by using textbook as a reference in classroom. In addition, students do not like to memorize and differentiate the flag of every states. The best way to attract their interest to learn geographical information especially about Malaysia Map is by converting the text or image information into interactive learning
method. The approach that are taken for this project is by converting the information with the implementation of augmented reality as the title for this project “Malaysia’s Flag Mobile Learning using Augmented Reality”. The objectives of this project are to identify the requirements, design and develop Augmented Reality mobile learning application about Malaysia map. This application are running on Android platform mobile devices and target user for this project are students in primary schools where age between 7-12 years old. The methodology approach that would applied in this project is ADDIE model that covered analysis, design, develop, implement, and evaluation phase. This methodology is suitable for interactive learning development process. The students can enjoy interactive information such as the capital of states, flag of state and the exact position of the states in the map of Malaysia. For 3D character model view, they can learn and know the flag that come out with an animation. This application helps student to know the all Malaysia’s states flag with an interactive games provided. Although the existing applications have their own benefits, for further development, improvements are needed to gain better application which can optimize the existing application. In conclusion, this project will act as a strong enabling force for wider deployment of Augmented Reality in the future in education in order to heighten user’s experience in learning geographical subject.
