MobileCoach Exercise 1
Variables
In this first exercise, you will create a short "Onboarding" dialogue in your intervention. MobileCoach Designer is used for the implementation of the logic and conversational turns of your digital health intervention. In order to complete this assignment, you have to carefully watch the first 3 MobileCoach video tutorials: https://vimeo.com/channels/1809334 Please implement the following dialogue and add one additional conversational turn of your choice:
"Hi I'm $coach, your digital coach." "What is your name?" -> free text answer option -> saving the response in the $participantName variable "Hi $participantName, nice to meet you!"
Hint 1: Use an underline "_" as a placeholder for your answer. Figure 1 shows you how the result of this assignment should look like.
Hint 2: Save input text as “free text raw” so capitalized letters in names are taken into account.
