Abstract

This study aims to set forth a framework for how the design and scenarios should be handled, and how mHealth ecosystem and Universal Design principles should be used in the designing of an “interactive augmented reality 3-D pop-up book” that can be viewed on mobile devices. This book, which will pursue the goal of increasing university college professors' awareness about students with bipolar disorder, will be the first mHealth study handled in this scope in the literature. In the background section of the study, the authors first elaborate on the rapid advancement of mobile devices, their proliferation and their reflections on mHealth projects in the healthcare sector. Then the authors include mHealth-related applications that raise awareness, the authors analyze the importance of social awareness about mental health, and finally, the authors get to the core of bipolar disorder and present the current situation. Within the scope of this study, the authors construct a theoretical framework that will assume the guiding role in the completion of an interactive 3-D pop-up book.
