Abstract
Developing good self-regulated learning (SRL) skills is highly important for medical students, not only to help them to navigate and succeed at their current study, but to support their continuing professional development and lifelong learning once they enter the workplace. A key component of SRL is the ability to reflect on feedback and to use this to spot gaps in knowledge/skills, identify learning opportunities and plan new learning goals and activities. Technology can help by providing students with tools that scaffold their development of these skills. This paper reports on the co-design of myPAL, a student-facing learning analytics system. Within co-design workshops, we worked with students to improve myPAL. These hands-on, creative workshops involved students in discussion of their current and desired use of feedback, practical interface/visualisation design and prototype use and adaptation. Using this participative approach we have identified one key visualisation and a set of functions/features that students want to be available to help them to review and act on their feedback. In this paper we report and reflect on the co-design approach that has been used, including the observed benefits of taking such an approach as well as its limitations. We also outline the further work that is planned to develop & evaluate the required improvements to myPAL.
