Part 4: Developing a User-Friendly, Web Enabled and Secure Interface for Health Professionals: This part of the research will be ongoing and begin at the onset of the project. An advisory team including pediatricians, family doctors, pediatric endocrinologists, specialists in pediatric diabetes, African American health outreach professionals and promotoras (outreach workers in the Hispanic community) will be assembled to guide us through the process of developing a web interface that will ensure that the right information will be displayed in an easily interpretable fashion. The advisory group will participate in regular meetings to develop and test the web interface. At the onset of the project, they will be invited to participate in an idea-building session in order to develop specific guidelines for web interface development. Idea-building sessions are one of the nominal group techniques that are used to structure small group meetings in such a way that individual judgments can be effectively pooled. Typically, four steps are involved: 1) silent generation of ideas; 2) group recording of ideas; 3) serial discussion of ideas; and, 4) voting to order the ideas as to their salience. Idea writing is particularly helpful in developing general ideas into more specific ideas using group interaction. This is also a four-step process: 1) organization into small groups; 2) initial written response; 3) written interaction; and, 4) analyses and report. Idea writing is an attractive technique because the group produces a written product. Analyses of the idea-building data includes recording, transcription, and examination of the data for emergent themes. The information from these sessions will be used for several purposes: 1) to define the form and content of final data that the web interface will provide, 2) to develop a system of notifications or alarms for specific metabolic and behavioral values, such as blood pressure that is too high or physical activity that is too low as discussed in the previous paragraph, 3) define important pathways within the data that health practitioners will need to navigate easily and 4) to ensure web interface user friendliness, accuracy and appeal. Ideas will also be generated on use of the web interface to develop interventions for the targeted groups immediately and in the future.
