Seminar: NUM-COMPASS Pandemic Health App Design
Background
The project NUM-COMPASS established a framework that facilitates the design of pandemic-related studies. The project yielded an exemplary app, which can be found on https://numde.github.io/compass-numapp/. This seminar aims to familiarise students with the novel NUM app and give them the opportunity to design their own study-related apps. After completing the seminar, students will be capable of developing pandemic study apps using NUM components, one of the pioneer projects of pandemic and COVID-19 research. The students practice essential skills to become experts in developing apps for pandemic health research, including front-end design, FHIR standard and its potential in pandemic studies, back-end design using FHIR and specific app architecture requirements for study designs in pandemic and COVID-19 contexts.
Aim:
Understand the components of pandemic health apps and improve front-end and/or back-end programming skills.
Learning Objectives:
- Understand the requirements of questionnaires for pandemic studies
- Develop exemplary apps using the NUM-COMPASS framework
- Enhance knowledge in FHIR resources
