About the Project
According to the World Health Organization (WHO), over 466 million people with hearing impairments rely on sign language as a main communication tool, making it one of the most important languages in the world. However, despite it is commonly used among deaf individuals, sign language remains unfamiliar to hearing individuals due limited accessible resources and awareness, which results in a communication gap between them. To address this issue, LearnBIM mobile application provides an engaging and interactive mobile application that promotes Malaysian sign language learning for both hearing and non-hearing individuals. The existing sign language learning tools frequently use static content, which can be uninteresting and demotivating for users to learn sign language. Thus, LearnBIM has integrated gamification features such as badges, progress tracking, and challenges to create an immersive and enjoyable learning experience. LearnBIM app gives a positive impact on promoting sign language as an accessible communication tool.
