Abstract
The development of ICT and the popularization of smart devices are affecting not only politics, economics and culture but also even education. Smart education, a concept that promotes active learning based on the latest mobile technology, is being noted for a new paradigm in education of the $21^{st}$ century. The aim of this study was to develop a mobile application, Smart Medical Terminology(SMT), allows health science students to learn medical terminology anytime, anywhere, easily and conveniently. The SMT makes learners interested in and motivated to learn medical terminology. It also provides various learning methods that enable self-direction learning in accordance with the level of learners.
