The objective of this article is to share the experience gained in the University concerning the design of the USiena format, which will be used as a basis for the realization of a prototype mobile course. The methodology used for the design is the User-Centered Design implemented through techniques such as focus groups, interviews, questionnaires and student tests. The feedback obtained from these tests allowed the development of guidelines that will be used during the design phase of the course. The designed format has been experimentally verified, evaluating the learning level through multiplechoice questionnaires. Although these are only a few pilot studies, the results obtained showed that the use of the format helped the learners to create a network of social relations and reciprocal connections that allowed each of them to construct their own cognitive architectures on the topics covered, improving learning.Downloads
