Abstract

Background: E-learning has emerged as a crucial method of education, extensively embraced by individuals aiming to improve their skills. Providing empowerment courses in this field for faculty members within a flexible learning framework can bolster the effectiveness of education. Methods: This research, which is applied, innovative, and technological, involves collecting quantitative and qualitative data. By reviewing the literature, analyzing sample platforms, and conducting interviews with experts in e-learning and medicine, we identified the educational elements and software features that meet user needs and preferences. A questionnaire, filled out by 30 professors from the Shahid Beheshti University of Medical Sciences, informed the development of the educational course. This course, designed according to the Ashur model, focuses on identifying user interface characteristics for software environment design and programming. Results: The analysis showed that faculty members are familiar with design patterns but need more knowledge of software and content production tools. The preference for asynchronous course delivery and content presented in written text, along with diverse forms of counseling and support (SMS, phone calls, social networks, and email), emerged as significant for the design of the platform environment. Conclusions: The faculty empowerment course, designed based on the Ashur model with considerations for learning environment design, including user interface and user experience, has been prepared for programming and implementation on an appropriate platform.

设计一款应用程序,增强教职员工在电子学习领域的能力
背景:电子学习已成为一种重要的教育方法,受到旨在提高技能的个人的广泛欢迎。在灵活的学习框架内为教职员工提供这一领域的赋权课程,可以提高教育的有效性。研究方法本研究具有应用性、创新性和技术性,涉及收集定量和定性数据。通过查阅文献、分析样本平台以及与电子学习和医学专家进行访谈,我们确定了满足用户需求和偏好的教育元素和软件功能。沙希德-贝赫什提医科大学的 30 位教授填写了一份调查问卷,为教育课程的开发提供了依据。该课程根据阿舒尔模式设计,重点是确定软件环境设计和编程的用户界面特征。结果分析表明,教师们熟悉设计模式,但需要更多的软件和内容制作工具方面的知识。对异步课程交付和以书面文本呈现的内容的偏好,以及多种形式的咨询和支持(短信、电话、社交网络和电子邮件),对平台环境的设计具有重要意义。结论根据阿舒尔模式设计的教师赋权课程考虑到了学习环境设计,包括用户界面和用户体验,已准备好在适当的平台上进行编程和实施。
