Assignment Prompt & Instructions

### Overview
The assignment aims to:
1. **Stimulate interest** in technology tools like mobile apps for personal wellness.
2. **Develop skills** to evaluate these tools for clinical use.
3. **Differentiate** between apps with evidence-based content and those without.
### Steps to Complete the Assignment
#### **Step 1: Identify a Mobile App (App Selection and Relevance)**
– Find a mobile application that promotes personal self-management or wellness.
– Discuss the application (APP) selected and relevance and rationale for selection.
– Use at least one evidence-based sources to support your work.
#### **Step 2: Conduct an App Evaluation (Evaluation)**
– **Use the** [**APA Model Screener ToolLinks to an external site.**](https://www.psychiatry.org/psychiatrists/practice/mental-health-apps/the-app-evaluation-model) [:Links to an external site.](https://www.psychiatry.org/psychiatrists/practice/mental-health-apps/the-app-evaluation-model) This tool has eight questions to help you systematically evaluate the app. Please view the Informational videos on how to use the APA Model Screener Tool before proceeding.
**APA Evaluation Model Screener**
The below Model is comprehensive. This brief version of the Model extracts a sample of the most fundamental questions that should be asked before considering using an app, and can serve as a good "jumping off" point to get you started:
– On which platforms/operating systems does the app work? Does it also work on a desktop computer?
– Has the app been updated in the last 180 days?
– Is there a transparent privacy policy that is clear and accessible before use?
– Does the app collect, us, and/or transmit sensitive data? If yes, does it claim to do so securely?
– Is there evidence of specific benefit from academic institutions, end user feedback, or research studies?
– Does the app have a clinical/recovery foundation relevant to your intended use?
– Does the app seem easy to use?
– Can data be easily shared and interpreted in a way that's consistent with the stated purpose of the app?
_**Note: This can be submitted as a bulleted list**_
**Step 3: Answer Evaluation Questions (Application)**
**Review the 5 Steps of the App Evaluation Model. There are multiple questions for each section. Select 2 questions from each step to discuss.**
– Step 1: Access and Background
– Step 2: Privacy and Security
– Step 3: Clinical Foundation
– Step 4: Usability
– Step 5: Data Integration towards Therapeutic Goal
_**Note: This can be submitted as a bulleted list**_
#### **Summarize Your Findings (Putting it all together)**
– Submit a summary report with the above information. (You may use the bullet point format)
– Use APA format including headers to organize your content. You should have 3 sections to the Summary (App Selection and Relevance, Evaluation, and Application).
– Use APA format to include a title page, content and reference page.
#### **Step 5: Present Findings (You will post this in a Discussion Board Next Week).**
– Present your findings to your peers on a discussion board.
