KAFA, Islamic application, mobile apps, innovative learningAbstract
Q-Ibadah is a mobile application that aims to nurture KAFA students on their Islamic and religious knowledge. The lack of accessibility of digital and online KAFA subject resources have become the motivation in the development of this mobile app. Design and development of this application have followed the software development phases by iterating its design based on the results gathered during the usability pilot-testing phase. As a result, few alterations were suggested for the next development cycle. This research is aimed to provide more contemporary learning style for this important religious lesson for children in Malaysia.
