title: Interactive electronic whiteboards in the medical classroom.
abstract: Most research on computer-assisted instruction has concentrated on developing systems to be used outside the teaching environment to supplement or complement in-class teaching. We believe that interactive large-screen computers can be used effectively in the classroom as electronic whiteboards to more effectively teach select medical school courses. We describe our experience with one such device, the Xerox LiveBoard, to teach a course on computer-assisted clinical decision analysis to a group of first-year medical students.
