Employing Participatory Design in Health Cluster Mobile Apps Development: An Approach for PBL

Abstract

One of the most common issues first-year students with a Bachelor of Computer Science (Multimedia) degree have is uncertainty about the program's outcome. Some of them thought that the course would teach them how to create creative content. As a result, project-based learning (PBL) and participatory design (PD) were implemented, with assistance from two agencies involved to support better comprehension of expected outcomes. Both approaches benefit all parties in the teaching and learning process, and the ultimate result will be used by the agencies, based on student reflections and agency input.
