Abstract: The aim of this study is to evaluate the usability of Mobile Assisted Language Learning i.e. Literacy and Numeracy Drive (LND) which is smartphone application to learn language and mathematics in public sector primary schools of Punjab, the biggest province of Pakistan. In this study, usability tests were conducted which included surveys of questionnaires from teachers and students. The user experience, reliability, and performance of mobile application assessed, along with user satisfaction. The LND mobile application has not been found to be successful, with a poor user interface and requires improvement. The "Using Experience," "Ease of Use" and "Usefulness" variables have been the lowest scorers in terms of user experience. Mobile device specifications were not simple and confusing; the services provided by the LND were not appealing and effective for students or teachers. This research suggested several improvements in the usability and functionality of this LND application based on assessed user experience. Many schools have chosen to use mobile apps for the teaching and evaluation of language at school. The use of mobile-assisted learning at public sector schools in Punjab, invites us to gauge the usability and effectiveness of this approach at such a huge scale which will make it more effective.

Keywords: Literacy and numeracy drive; usability; user experience; mobile app; assessment; public school
