abstract = "This paper reports the experience of designing and developing a multimedia m-Learning platform (named LingoSnacks) for interactive learning of Arabic spelling and vocabulary. It uses interactive game-like delivery methods to acquire new linguistic skills in playful manner using the capabilities of modern mobile devices with multi-touch technologies. The LingoSnacks learning platform provides an environment of authoring Arabic learning content and delivering it to the end-users in interactive, intuitive and enjoyable way. The learning content is organized into packages that contain a list of words, the different meanings of words with examples and multimedia illustrations. The package also contains other related linguistic and morphological information such as the parts of speech of example sentences. The developed system was tested to ensure that it meets its functional requirements. Additionally performance and usability evaluation was conducted to refine the system and demonstrate that the design constraints are satisfied.",
