Abstract
This study developed and validated BEsMART, a mobile review application
for pre-service science teachers preparing for the Licensure Examination
for Teachers (LET). Addressing challenges such as high review costs,
inconsistent study habits, and concept retention difficulties, BEsMART
integrates spaced repetition for memory retention and hypercorrection
techniques to correct misconceptions. Other features include questionbased drills, multimedia resources, instant feedback, and progress tracking.
A mixed-method research design was employed, combining ISO/IEC 25010
standards, the U.S.E. Questionnaire, and qualitative feedback from 9 experts
and 48 pre-service teachers. Using the Scrum methodology, the application
underwent iterative development to enhance usability. Results showed high
functional suitability, usability, and reliability, with overall ratings of 4.72
(experts) and 4.75 (users). Findings confirm BEsMART’s effectiveness as a
self-directed, accessible, and cost-efficient LET review tool, reinforcing
mobile learning’s transformative potential in professional examination
contexts and paving the way for future improvements and broader
adoption.
