About

This User-Centred Digital Government course at King's College London seeks to explain what the user-centred digital government movement is and why it matters to public servants and policy makers. It explores why that movement came about, what it believes, and what it was responding to.

Overview

What will I achieve?

Upon completion of this User-Centred Digital Government course at King's College London, students will be able to:
  • Apply an enhanced skill-set on the applicability of digital services for different types of users and contexts.
  • Create and/or improve digital services that put the citizens at the centre.
  • Adapt, create or oversee the creation of appropriate citizen-centric technological solutions to existing service provision.

Programme Structure

What does this course cover?
  • Week 1: What is e-government?
  • This week we will introduce the general notion of e-government and how it differs from traditional forms of government. This will lay the foundations for the module by defining and explaining the key concepts used in the module.
  • Week 2: Public service as a platform
  • In this week we will examine the transformation of public services. We will look to the platformisation of public service by exploring two phenomena that perhaps epitomise, better than any others, the turn towards a user-centred e-government.
  • Week 3: The user at the centre?
  • In this final week of the module, we turn to analysing the shifting position and role of citizens in an e-government environment. Building on the content previously covered, we will close in on the central question of e-government: in which ways are citizens made more involved in the delivery of public services?
