It is important for all students, particularly those from China, to have an access to a learning resource, which is available at any time and reachable from any corner of the world. The department has therefore developed an Internet site with a collection of clinical cases and laboratory problems, which are interactive. The topics follow the lecture course for medical students. Students can select to see a short list of possible answers to the questions. For example, when asked about the likely cause for hypercalcaemia, a list of common causes can be selected, which lead a student to learn a new topic.
Site counters detect whether correct or incorrect answers are selected.
If a student continuously selects an incorrect answer, a detailed explanation is given or more tuition on the subject is suggested. The site is developing into a truly international site with contributions from other countries. Several cases have been translated into Chinese and other languages.
