title: Evaluation of an interactive multimedia application to learn interpersonal skills.
abstract: A multidisciplinary team from Ryerson Polytechnic University in Toronto collaborated to produce an interactive multimedia application to teach interpersonal communication skills. The purpose of this educational prototype was to provide a module to accompany an introductory course in communication skills. Though it is based on a scenario specific to a group of health care professionals, it is hoped that the application would be useful to a variety of learners.
