Histology teachware for the Web site of the University of Medicine and Pharmacy "Gr. T. Popa" Iaşi.
Design and implementation of Web educational materials for medical sciences are discussed starting from a brief presentation of the current trends in using Internet facilities and placing emphasis on the specific case of the www page constructed for the Department of Histology. The paper focuses on the development of teaching-aids for the morphological study of organs and systems, illustrated by the creation of Histology Album, including photographs and explanatory texts, which is accessible via this www departmental page. Relevant aspects for the construction of the Histology Album are detailed in terms of both logical structure and physical implementation, based on HTML techniques. Outcomes are expected in achieving a noticeable progress in students' instruction, as a result of diversifying the documentation possibilities and increasing the role of the individual work (by avoiding the permanent supervision of an instructor). Further improvements of this www page are commented in the light of the recently proposed frameworks for distance learning, relying on specialized software tools that allow student's interactive work.
