Dementia Education

Background It is estimated that 564,000 Canadians are currently living with dementia and there are approximately 486,000 to 1.1 million informal family/friend caregivers. Family/friend caregivers often receive little to no education or training about dementia but are expected to provide ongoing support for a complex condition. Web-based family/friend caregiver interventions may be helpful, but little is known about how best to implement them. Objective The objectives of this study were to 1) design and develop a novel education prescription application to help scale and spread web-based dementia education to family/friend caregivers, 2) conduct user testing, and 3) conduct a larger-scale field trial. Methods A novel education prescription web-based application was designed and developed. Initial user testing used task completion and the “think aloud” technique with a small sample of representative clinicians who work with people living with dementia and family/friend caregivers. Following iterative incorporation of feedback, a larger field trial was conducted with a convenience sample of clinicians. Account invitations were sent to 55 clinicians and, following a 2-month trial period, surveys were administered to participants including the System Usability Scale and the Net Promoter Score. Results During the initial user testing phase, participants (N=7) from representative disciplines easily completed associated tasks, and had very positive feedback with respect to the usability of the application. The System Usability Scale score during this phase was 91.4. Suggestions from feedback were incorporated into the application. During the larger field trial phase, participants (total N=55; activated account n=17; did not activate account n=38) were given access to the iGeriCare education prescription application. During this period, 2 participants created educational prescriptions; a total of 3 educational prescriptions were sent. Survey completers who did not activate their account (n=5) identified that their lack of use was due to time constraints, competing priorities, or forgetting to use the application. Survey completers who activated their account (n=5) identified their lower use was due to lack of time, lack of eligible family/friend caregivers during trial period, and competing priorities due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The System Usability Scale score during this phase was 78.75, and the Net Promoter Score was 50. Conclusions Study findings indicate a generally positive response for the usability of a web-based application for clinicians to prescribe dementia education to family/friend caregivers. The dissonance between the promising data and widespread enthusiasm for the design and purpose of the education prescription application found in the initial user testing phase and subsequent lack of significant adoption in the field trial represents both an important lesson for other novel health technologies and a potential area for further investigation. Further research is required to better understand factors associated with implementation of this type of intervention and impact on dissemination of education to family/friend caregivers.

Salah satu cara untuk mewujudkan pelayanan di bidang hukum atau penegakan hukum kepolisian adalah pendekatan sistem elektronik Manajemen Penyidikan (e-MP). E-MP merupakan sebuah aplikasi yang sangat membantu anggota reserse dari level pimpinan hingga penyidik serta penyidik pembantu untuk dapat berinteraksi dalam bekerja di dalam sebuah sistem manajemen penyidikan. Interaksi dimulai dari laporan polisi, penugasan personel dalam menangani suatu perkara hingga perkara tersebut selesai ditangani. Bagi pimpinan aplikasi e-MP ini berguna untuk melakukan analisa dan evaluasi kinerja anggota Polri khususnya jajaran Bareskrim. Hal ini sejalan dengan Perkap Nomor 6 Tahun 2019 pasal 45 ayat (1) dan (2) ditegaskan juga bahwa untuk mengukur keberhasilan penyidikan yang dilakukan oleh penyidik/penyidik pembantu, dilakukan evaluasi kinerja melalui aplikasi e-MP. Bareskrim Polri menargetkan penggelaran perangkat lunak (software rollout) secara masif penggunaan e-MP sebesar 90% pada tahun 2024. Hal ini memerlukan perubahan organisasi secara mendasar baik dari aspek sumber daya manusia (culture and people), proses, dan teknologi. Penelitian ditujukan untuk meingkatkan efektivitas penggelaran sistem e-MP Reskrim dalam mewujudkan pelayanan prima. Penelitian menggunakan metode campuran. Analis statistik deskriptif digunakan untuk data kuantitaif, sementara Teknik reduksi data, kategorisasi, display data dan pengukuran loyalitas pengguna melalui Net Promoter Score (NPS) dan System Usability Scale (SUS) untuk data kualitatif. Temuan yang menjadi sorotan terdapat aspek sumber daya manusia serta sarana dan prasarana sehingga diperlukannya penyelenggaraan pelatihan pengoperasian e-MP dan peningkatan sarana dan prasarana.

PEB Cooperative is a savings and loan cooperative which is intended for employees of PT. PEB, is engaged in the garment industry. Established since 15 years with the number of cooperative members who are permanent employees of the company. This cooperative becomes an economical shelter to meet the needs of its employees. Technology in admin data processing is still simple using Microsoft Excel tools, in applications that connect members with admins on this system have not been designed, so from the background of this research will design a web-based and android-based savings and loan cooperative information system This design uses the waterfall model which will take a sequential design making it easier for developers and users. The hope is that this design will help make transactions for savings, loans, deposits, data collection, and reports to members, admins and leaders. The results obtained from the questionnaire with the System Usability Scale method in this savings and loan cooperative application are easy to use, faster, and practical, stated by the cooperative members by 84% and cooperative managers by 80%. It can be concluded that this application that has been designed can make it easier to carry out savings and loan transactions quickly and practically.

The application of interactive learning multimedia is one of the factors that impact the learning process for achieving learning outcomes. In developing a mobile application, the main principle is usability. This research goal is to presents a usability evaluation of the Jawara Sains, which is a mobile application to learn science subjects. This research used a System Usability Scale (SUS) questionnaire to measure the level of users’ perceived usability. This score can indicate the usability performance of effectiveness, efficiency, and ease of use. Jawara Sains's SUS score achieved 75.45, which indicates a B grade, acceptable, and categorized in the good range. This score can also indicate whether a user is a promoter or not. The analysis showed that the Jawara Sains is categorized into the passive Net Promoter Score (NPS), which means users will not influence other people. Therefore, recommendations are needed for its usability improvements.
