Students are presented with the case in the form of a problem solving scenario. On-line reference materials, including contemporaneous coverage in both text and video formats, are provided. Finally, the students engage in on-line discussion of the case and other lecture topics with other students and with instructors, using linked bulletin boards. Essential visual material, photographic images, medical illustrations, and moving video were digitized, incorporated and made readily available. Course administrators can update and add material as needed.
Faculty can place questions for labs and conferences online.
Exams with answers and distribution of scores are posted on the site. A large array of pdf documents were made available online for easy access, printing and archiving for later student use. Students can link, index, annotate, and search these documents.
