Computer assisted instruction for radiotherapy residents.
In order for radiotherapy residents to become proficient with physics concepts, a certain amount of reinforcement and repetition is necessary. An assembly of computer programs has been developed for the RSX operating system with the aim of shifting these repetitive tasks from the physics staff to a computer. Three types of interactions are employed: (1) textual summaries of key concepts, (2) numerical problems, and (3) typical board exam questions. A file is maintained which records the resident's performances as they work through the programs.
