Her name is Mrs Hayatunnufus binti Ahmad. Her email is hayatunnufusahmad@gmail.com. Her project title is Augmented Reality to Aid Al-Quran Memorization for Hearing Impaired Students.
She is very polite, smart and very hardworking student. She have a lot of idea during complete her study. I am so happy to work with her. Thanks for become my first postgraduate student.
In her project she divided her work into four main phase. In phase 1 is the preliminary study, phase 2 is the application development, phase 3 is testing and evaluation and in the phase 4 is analysis and report writing.

Researh Title: Augmented Reality Model to Aid Al-Quran Memorization for Hearing Impaired Students.
Research Background:
The use of AR in the education system from preschool to tertiary can be seen from the implementation in classrooms such as in pre-school science subject, science subject in secondary school, astronomy, arithmetic, geometry and computer science. However, according to previous study, there is a need for Islamic learning materials to be incorporated with modern methods and technologies.
Learning the book of Quran is compulsory for all Muslims. It is a gift from Allah to all Muslims as it has explanations, warnings, and guidelines for Muslims and others on how to live life here and in the world hereafter. All Muslims regardless of age, gender, race, ability or wealth are required to learn Quran. However, the method in learning Quran among HI students needs to be improved. This is due to the notion that many people believe that having hearing impairment is an acceptable excuse to not read the Quran. Moreover, people with hearing problem have difficulty to hear and utter sounds as Quran is usually taught by reading repeatedly and hearing how the word is pronounced with good makhraj and tajweed. Not only that, they also use sign language, writing, and gesture acts as the communication medium that requires all words to be translated into the sign language. However, many of HI are not able to understand or grasp something abstract and some of the Islamic terms. Therefore, Tahfiz Akhyar, the Al-Quran memorization method was introduced by Hj Norakyairee Hj Raus and Zaharatul Sophia Mohamed Amir Abas in 2014 that is based on Prophet Muhammad’s teaching method to memorize doa, zikr, selawat and solah. The method is based on arranging the pieces verses of surah in Al-Quran in the correct sequence. However based on researcher observation, HI students faced difficulty in arranging the verses of surah in the correct order and made mistakes when arranging the verses of surah. Thus, the use of technology can help the HI students to learn Al-Quran better and eventually can improve the students’ learnability as well as the memorization quality.
