Learning Experience Design and Evaluation of an mHealth Intervention for Parents of Children with Epilepsy

• In Event: D&D- Learning Experience Design (h)

Short Description

Research suggests that ~60% of children with epilepsy have suboptimal adherence to their antiepileptic drugs with potentially devastating consequences. To address this problem, we have developed an innovative mobile-based adherence intervention for parents of children with epilepsy, which includes use of learning experience design methods. This session will present findings from a user-centric evaluation and formative design process of one component of the adherence intervention. The findings from this study advance the field’s understanding of designing, developing, and integrating emerging technologies through a design thinking lens.
