Take away • Summarize the current approaches in
mobile health• Introduce Social Awareness in mobile
health system design• Results of the experiments of VERA and
Discussion of Social Awareness in design

VERA, the experiments• Two sets of Deployments
– Mobile Mothers (with young children)– Faculty and stuff at University
• Results– Health has verified definitions among
people– Confusion of the system

Social Awareness• Results(continued)
– Positive influence
• Social Awareness– Imitation– Presentation– Identity
