“…There has been an increase in the literacy and awareness of the use of microcomputers among medical students in recent years (Bresnitz et al 1986). At the same time, microcomputers have also been used increasingly in medical schools (Biran & Biran 1986) since they have been shown to have tremendous potential in medical education (Murray et al 1977) and various types of programmes for computer‐assisted learning (CAL) have been written for this purpose (Kenny & Schmulian 1979; Richards 1984; Jensch & Veloski 1986). The use of microcomputers in medical education has recently been reviewed by Prentice & Kenny (1986a).…”

Computer-enhanced learning in neuroanatomy

1989

The recent development of powerful microcomputers and the introduction of object-oriented programming languages has now made available to educationists software that can be easily used to design and develop computer-based learning material. We have developed courseware and tutorware in the field of neuroanatomy which are pedagogically structured and yet provide multiple paths of learning for the individual student. Neuroanatomy is a difficult subject to learn because of the structural intricacy and functional correlations that it entails. The courseware enables students to approach the subject at different levels of difficulty and progress at their own pace towards a comprehensive understanding of structure and function aided by text integrated with graphics, sound and animation. A significant advantage to authors of similar courseware is the option to update the contents easily when necessary in the future.
