Abstract

Teacher creativity in teaching using technology such as mobile learning has been widely applied in developed countries, because it is a 21st century skill. However, only a few lecturers in developing countries, such as Indonesia, are incorporating mobile learning with technological tools, like the Discord application, to create a stimulating and interactive learning experience for their students. For data collection, a questionnaire comprising 26 questions with 6 scales was used. The questionnaire was sourced from www.ueq-online.org, and the data collected from the study were carefully analyzed and examined to extract valuable insights and finding. s. The results showed 6 user experience scales, namely attractiveness, perspicuity, efficiency, dependability, stimulation, and novelty. The results were, on average and very good categories since mobile learning with Discord platform can foster a creative and enjoyable experience for lecturers and students. Furthermore, the study found that lecturers effectively engaged in learning interactions, assigned tasks, and fostered students’ creative competence with the support of facilities and new technological equipment.

User Experience of a Mobile App in a City Tour Game for International Doctoral Students

“…The three most frequent classes of age were between 25 and 29 years old (16), between 30 and 34 (14), and between 35 and 39 (8). The remaining classes of ages had 3 students (40-44 and 45-49), 2 (20)(21)(22)(23)(24), and 1 (50-54, 55-59). Five students did not disclose their age.…”

“…Hence, the EduCITY app prototype created a positive impression regarding Attractiveness (1.43), Perspicuity (1.11), Stimulation (1.18), and Novelty (1.02), and a neutral-positive impression on the Efficiency (0.87) and Dependability (0.73) scales. Other studies on user experience of mobile apps have found positive user experience values [18][19][20][21].…”
