The quasi-experimental research was adopted for this study with the nonequivalent control. The quantitative and qualitative mixed method is used to collect the data. A total of 89 undergraduate students who are pursuing their degree programme in Information Science and Technology at University X in Malaysia participated in this research. 32 of them belongs to the control group while the remaining 57 were in the experimental group.

The first phase is conducting the pre-test for both groups after collecting consent and general information about the participants. The second phase is an intervention where the experimental group was provided to leverage the developed system to learn about Mathematics. The final stage is the post-test, to collect the data on the performance level of the control and experimental groups.
