Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a condition that appears during pregnancy and is expected to be a temporary one. While patients are encouraged to manage it themselves, research findings indicate that GDM may negatively affect the foetus; in addition, there is an increased risk of women with GDM subsequently developing Type 2 diabetes. To alleviate the risks, women with GDM are advised to maintain a record of their diet and blood glucose levels and to attend regular clinical reviews. Rather than using a paper diary, women with GDM can maintain a record of their blood glucose level readings and other relevant data using a wellness mobile application (app). However, such apps are developed for general use and may not meet the specific needs of clinical staff (physicians, dietitians, obstetricians and midwives) involved in managing GDM; for example, an app may record glucose readings but not the details of a meal taken before or after the glucose reading. Second, the apps do not permanently store the data generated by the patient and do not support the transfer of these data to a clinical system or information portal. The mobile health (mHealth) system designed and developed in this research allows one to integrate different types of user generated wellness data into a centralised database. A user-centered design (UCD) approach informed by the technology acceptance model (TAM) was adopted. This paper investigates and evaluates the effectiveness of the approach with regard to facilitating system acceptance and future adoption through an early focus on enhancing system usefulness and ease of use. The functional system requirements of the proposed system were refined through a series of interviews with the perspective of clinical users; ease-of-use and usability issues were resolved through ‘think aloud’ sessions with clinicians and GDM patients.

Having a system to process and store information securely is crucial for an e-learning environment in a higher learning institute. Data recorded manually is deemed unsuitable as it may lead to mishandling of documents, poor record of documents movements, and even missing documents. A final year project (FYP) subject for a particular university’s course would need a specific management system to alleviate the work processes of supervision and monitor student progress. This system would reduce cost, paperwork, staffing and even simplify the workflow process. Therefore, introducing a student dashboard-based system for the FYP course is proposed in this study. This paper presents a smart system utilizing data analytics and a dashboard that enables the students to self-monitor, track progress and manage important information related to their FYP. The system development followed stepwise Rapid Application Development (RAD) methodology in developing the system. The developed system has been designed, developed, and tested by university students taking FYP courses. A Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) was adopted in the testing phase to examine the system acceptance and user behavior intention in using the proposed system. The results showed a significant effect on a positive implementation in the faculty’s course management and monitoring the student’s FYP progress. For the dashboard-based system to reach its full potential, it is highly recommended to implement the system in its course management fully.

This study aims to analyze the effectiveness of the implementation of online zoning PPDB at SMA Negeri 4 Bekasi City during Covid-19. During a pandemic, the entire PPDB process is carried out through one route. As for the difficulty, prospective students can come to school by sticking to health protocols and research in June 2020. The research location is one of the favorite high schools in Bekasi. Primary data sources were obtained from in-depth interviews directly with informants. Secondary data sources are taken from books, journals, and other official documents from informants. The selection of informants was selected by purposive non-probability sampling: data collection techniques used online observation, in-depth interviews, and documentation. The data validity used source triangulation—this research analysis using descriptive method. The data collection technique was carried out through interviews with parents, school representatives, and related agencies and was also supported by literature studies related to school zoning policies. The results showed that the application of PPDB zoning was more effective online during the pandemic. Because it can minimize parents' arrival and optimize the functions of the existing PPDB system. The implementation of the school zoning policy caused turmoil in the community. Limited time for socialization, lack of understanding of the PPDB mechanism with the zoning system, and uneven educational standards are some of the obstacles in its implementation in the field.

AbstractResearch on AI tends to analytically separate technical and social issues, viewing AI first as a technical object that only later, after it has been implemented, may have social consequences. This commentary paper discusses how some of the challenges of AI research relate to the gap between technological and social analyses, and it proposes steps ahead for how to practically achieve prosperous collaborations for future AI research. The discussion draws upon three examples to illustrate the analytical gap in different phases of the development of AI systems. Attending to the planning phase, the first example highlights the risk of oversimplifying the task for an AI system by not incorporating a social analysis at the outset of the development. The second example illuminates the issue of system acceptance, where the paper elaborates on why acceptance is multifaceted and need not be approached as merely a technical problem. With the third example, the paper notes that AI systems may change a practice, suggesting that a continuous analysis of such changes is necessary for projects to maintain relevance as well as to consider the broader impact of the developed technology. The paper argues that systematic and substantial social analyses should be integral to AI development. Exploring the connections between an AI’s technical design and its social implications is key to ensuring feasible and sustainable AI systems that benefit society. The paper calls for further multi-disciplinary research initiatives that explore new ways to close the analytical gap between technical and social approaches to AI.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to provide a model of hospital information system acceptance owned by the Social Security Organization. Methodology: This study was performed Cross-sectional – applied and descriptively and analytically. This study had two stages. The study population was in the first stage (qualitative), information technology experts in the Social Security Organization (6 people) and the second stage (quantitative), users of the hospital information system in medical centres owned by the Social Security Organization (375 people). The first stage of this study was based on interviews with IT experts. The second stage of the study was based on the results of interviews with experts using the design of a researcher-made questionnaire. The validity of the questionnaire was measured by using the opinion of experts in the field of information technology and health information technology and by calculating the CVR index. Cronbach's alpha coefficient (0.941) was used to assess the reliability of the questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of 12 axis and 46 questions with a five-point Likert scale with a score of 5-1. The interviews were analyzed qualitatively (content analysis) and the questionnaires were analyzed descriptively, analytically (correlation) and structural equation method is done with the help of SPSS software. Main Findings: Evaluation of direct relationships between model factors and hypotheses showed that the relationships between habit with intent to use, intention to use with actual use, increase motivation to use, increase management support, meet user expectations in achieving the expected performance of the system, value the cost to the system and the social impact of co-workers significantly increases the intention to use the system. Also, the coefficient of determination R2 for the target variables, which is the intention of use and actual use, were equal to 0.774 and 0.448, respectively. The goodness of fit (GoF) was equal to 0.671. The study of the effect of demographic factors on the target variables (intention to use and actual use) showed that none of the demographic variables has a significant effect on the intention to use and actual use. By considering these factors, the managers of the Social Security Organization can increase the rate of HIS admission in the hospitals and clinics of this organization. Application of Study: One of the technologies used in the healthcare sector is the hospital information system. It is less developed than other information systems that use information technology and apply quality standards for customer satisfaction. The IT acceptance model is one of the most valid models available that examines the acceptance factors of technology at different levels, including the individual level. Novelty/Originality:  The novelty of this research is giving a model of clinic data framework acknowledgement claimed by the Social Security Organization.
