Computer-aided instruction in perinatal education.
Medicine is a field that requires very extensive education to reach and maintain an acceptable level of functional competence. Often it is necessary for busy people to teach other busy people. Medical lectures may become tedious and repetitive for those who give them as well as an intrusion into their patient care and research time. Students may find it difficult to be in the right place at the right time to take advantage of important lecture material due to their own complex schedules. To work well, education requires a careful match of the student and the educational process. Computer-aided instruction offers some solutions to these and other problems of medical education.
