Computer-based systems may be able to address a recognised need throughout the medical profession for a more structured approach to training. We describe a combined training system for neuroradiology, the MR Tutor that differs from previous approaches to computer-assisted training in radiology in that it provides case-based tuition whereby the system and user communicate in terms of a well-foun...

A microcomputer-based aid for speech training has been introduced on a trial basis in the Swedish schools for the deaf. The prototxpe has been used for some years to evaluate its applicabiltty in the speech clinic of a bilingual school for prelmgually deaf children. Results are reported from two training experiments and some general comments are given on this new type of visual technical aids.

1 Tamer Çatalkaya, Department of Integrated Circuit Design, Technical University of Braunschweig, Germany, [email protected] Abstract  As an initiative to produce low-cost / low-time Computer Base Training (CBT) material for the education of Chip Design, we introduce our multimedia reference model and our multimedia lab. The reference model enables the cost efficient production, where t...

Computer-based training (CBT) has become a major field of investigation. However, authoring and modifiability of current CBT systems remain very open issues. On the software side, object-oriented programming allows to create and maintain libraries of reusable objects. On the cognitive side, even if these objects are designed as artifiact metaphors, they remain passive and rarely include user kn...

This paper discusses the results of an experiment that examines how emotional responses influence student satisfaction ratings with computer-based training materials. A comparison between tutorial-based and a simulation-based training showed significant differences in student emotional responses, satisfaction and continuance. The authors caution educators to consider the benefits and limitation...
