Abstract
<p>During the COVID-19 era, technology-enhanced protection of this disease has saved lives in developed countries in which citizens have the privilege of accessing and using such technologies to fight Coronavirus. In the undeveloped countries, on the other hand, citizens have had no accession or ability to use digital technologies to prevent COVID-19. Having this in front, in the MyShield research project, we aim to address how to teach self-care skills in undeveloped countries in the era of COVID-19 using a mobile low-cost application effectively based on a standard educational model (ADDIE). This paper reports a framework that arises from the results of semi-structured interviews and online workshops conducted in the ADDIE design process for the self-care mobile application. The specialists contributed to indicte the appropriate content for teaching self-care skills while informants contributed to optimize the user experience flow.</p>
