Computers are increasingly used in medical education. Electronic learning (elearning) is moving from textbooks in electronic format (that are increasingly enhanced by the use of multimedia adjuncts) to a truly interactive medium that can be delivered to meet the educational needs of students and postgraduate learners. Computer technology can present reliable, reusable content in a format that is convenient to the learner. It can be used to transcend geographical boundaries and time zones. It is a valuable tool to add to the medical teacher's toolkit, but like all tools it must be used appropriately. This article endeavours to review the current "state of the art2 in use of elearning and its role in medical education alongside non-electronic methods-a combination that is currently referred to as "blended" learning.
计算机在医学教育中的应用越来越广泛。电子学习（e-learning）正从电子格式的教科书（通过多媒体辅助手段的使用，其功能日益增强）转向一种真正的交互式媒介，这种媒介能够以满足学生和研究生学习者教育需求的方式进行传递。计算机技术能够以一种对学习者来说方便的格式呈现可靠、可重复使用的内容。它可用于跨越地理界限和时区。它是医学教师工具库中一项有价值的工具，但与所有工具一样，必须合理使用。本文旨在回顾电子学习的当前“技术现状”及其在医学教育中的作用，以及与非电子方法——目前被称为“混合式”学习的一种结合方式。
