After getting used to my new role as an adjunct professor, I have finally been motivated to get back into blogging and sharing cool things that I demo. Although it hasn’t been for lack of motivation, its been about time management. Speaking of motivation…
…This week’s tool is focused on motivation. MotiSpark comes with the promise of “Personalized video nudges that educate and inspire”. Well I wanted to put that to the test. With fairly easy set up the MotiSpark allows you some general goals to achieve. Then it gives you prompts and inspiration via your mobile device to work on goals that were laid out. The best part is that you co-create the program based on your answers to questions, and use your own images and videos…
I was a bit skeptical but also was thinking about how these days we often take in information in bite sized ways. I spoke with founder Ariel McNicol who reported that they are looking for even more customization in the future for certain conditions and populations. She talked about some of the success they have had in engaging people with education about diabetes and those in dialysis treatment.
The tech skeptic in me was wondering about the evidence to back this product. They were smart and have the science to support this product on their “science” page. That brief/non-invasive prompts have potential to change behaviors.
If you are looking for a creative way to perhaps motivate behavior change. Check out MotiSpark. You can find out more at their website.
