Mobile Learning: Fonik Application (FA) Using Spaced Repetition Algorithm (SRA) in The Covid-19 Era

Abstract

Phonics is one of the techniques to teach kids to learn alphabet. This technique used the sound of alphabet to teach kids. This project is to improve word reading skills by learn how to spell. The user’s mood of study can increase by the time. The memorizing technique which is Spaced Repetition Algorithm that implemented in the application can help the slow learner that have problem to memorize. The spaced repetition approach will strengthen memory, although at another efficiency using intervals. The Fonik Application (FA) target user is slow learner. This project provides the video of lips motion of how to sound the alphabet using phonics technique. It also provides two tests to view the user understanding of the learner. The tests are test of pronunciation and test of hearing. In pronunciation test, user needs to input the voice of the word that display in the screen. Speech recognition will recognize whether the speech that user input is correct or wrong. In the hearing test, user need to recognize the sound of the phonics that have given and answer the right alphabet by choosing the correct alphabet.
