User-centered evaluation of Discord in midwifery education during the COVID-19 pandemic: Analysis of the adaptation of the tool to student needs

INTRODUCTION In the context of the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, and in order to
overcome the lack of face-to-face contact between students and teachers, the midwifery
department of Grenoble (France) decided to use the Discord tool in the training of
midwifery students. In order to evaluate the relevance of using instant messaging software
for the education of future midwives, the tool was evaluated by the students.
METHODS We conducted, in January 2021, a user-centered online study with all midwifery
students in training for the classes of 2020–2021, using the French translation of Anstey
and Watson’s Rubric for the Evaluation of eLearning Tools. This evaluation analyzed the
different dimensions of Discord in the context of training: functionality, accessibility,
technology, design, privacy and data protection, social presence, pedagogical presence,
and cognitive presence.
RESULTS Discord had a good functionality for 75% of the students surveyed. They found
Discord to be suitable for maintaining social links and creating serious games. But they did
not find it useful for following courses or practical work. More than 80% of the midwifery
students interviewed agreed that Discord can be adapted to different learning contexts.
CONCLUSIONS The department can continue to use Discord without reservation for the
creation of serious games, as well as for maintaining links between students and teaching
staff in the department. Discord has the characteristics of a social network, allowing
students to connect with each other.
