The CASE system for cancer education.

A Computer-Assisted-Self-Evaluation (CASE) program in oncology is described. The program is based on motivation by immediate, informative feedback, and involves the computer-guided interaction of a student with a series of microfiche cards. The computer leads the student through a series of 16 questions and associated explanations and recommendations based on the answer choices. Since all textual materials are placed on microfiche cards, the computer is only required to print simple, prearranged sentences and comments. As a result four students, using different CASE topics, can time-share the same computer terminal. This time-sharing capability, together with the large but compact, low cost information storage afforded by the use of microfiche, makes the cost of this system comparable to that of conventional study aids. The use of the CASE system as an educational aid and self-tutoring mechanism has been well accepted by faculty and students.

Attitude

Computer-assisted learning in the teaching of anaesthesia.

A comparison of computer-assisted learning and small tutorial group teaching was carried out in the instruction of final year medical students in anaesthesia. The scores attained by fifteen of the sixteen students were higher after computer-assisted learning than after small group teaching. Statistical analyses of the results demonstrated that in this study computer-assisted learning was significantly better than small tutorial teaching.

Attitudes of medical undergraduates in Glasgow to computer-assisted learning.

Computer-assisted learning (CAL) has been introduced as part of the undergraduate teaching course in general practice during the penultimate year of the medical course. The student is given an opportunity to make clinical decisions and to manage a case over a significant time scale. The attitudes of the students are favourable to this method of instruction.
