In education

In India the App is being integrated into the Nurse Practitioner Midwifery Educator training program as a self-directed learning tool and as a part of the teaching/ learning activities. In Ethiopia the App is being piloted at pre-service colleges for midwife students to contribute to improvement of their current curriculum. The App has also been introduced as a study aid in Vientiane National Midwifery School, in Laos. A high number of students reported feeling better at studying and more confident in school after using the App.

Teachers can use the App to give homework e.g. ask students to complete certain modules/levels in ’MyLearning’, or study/review certain modules in the app before next class, to support theoretical teaching by e.g. showing parts of the app during a lecture, or to engage students in the teaching e.g. asking them to find the answer in the app or use the app to support group work. Students can use the App to assist as a reference tool when doing homework, to study before an exam, in class to work on a group assignment or presentation, during observations in teaching hospitals, and before, during and after drills.
