Literature Matrix 

Literature Matrix in PDF

Specific Feedback : Based on the literature matrix in the section of author keywords, the sub-topics seem fine and clear. It would be helpful if more similarities and differences were explained.

One of the challenges this week was actually organising all of the information to form all the words and phrases to explain in the right way to avoid any misunderstandings. But still, the literature review process was challenging at the same time rewarding. Nevertheless, I can slowly feel that I am able to remember what I have learned and gain a deeper understanding of all the research articles I have read.Therefore, I am looking forward to improving more during the next 14 weeks ! Good luck to myself !

Specific Feedback : 
-Short introduction about e-wallet , therefore it can be shorten down the mobile electronic wallet into mobile e-wallet app- interpretation and analysis more into section 3 , online questionnaire survey 
- list of table and figure need to be separated from table content
- the label of table of content is wrong and confusing need to be refine it again  

While reviewing the document, it was observed that different terms like mobile wallet, e-wallet, and mobile payment were used inconsistently. To ensure clarity and consistency in the document, Dr Hayati advised using only one specific term to refer to these concepts. This will help readers better understand and follow the discussion without confusion. By maintaining a consistent terminology, the overall coherence and professionalism of the document can be enhanced.

Mistake were done in list of figure of table

I also came across an issue with the labeling of the table of contents. Instead of having a separate list for tables and figures, they were incorrectly combined. This caused some confusion and inconsistency in the document. To fix this, I need to make sure that the tables and figures are properly labeled and organized in their respective sections. It's important to maintain clarity and professionalism in the document, so I will take the necessary steps to correct this mistake.
