An educational program has been developed to aid the instruction of Histology, a required course for the first year medical student. The program was developed using SuperCard on an Apple Macintosh IIci computer. It incorporates high quality color images with a hypermedia format, i.e. the student can jump from topic to topic as he/she wishes. The program has an "atlas," which provides information about each image and topic being discussed, and a "drill," which presents to the student a question about an image and provides feedback tailored to the student's answer. In the drill, the student is asked to type in responses to the questions; the answer is judged by text recognition. For each question, feedback is written for the correct answer, incorrect answer, and up to 10 "accessory answers" (answers which might be expected although they are not correct). The faculty of the UMMS Histology course has encouraged the use of this program in this years' course, and evaluation received from faculty and students has been quite positive.
一个教育项目已开发出来，以辅助组织学课程的教学，这是医学院一年级学生的必修课。该项目是在苹果Macintosh IIci计算机上使用SuperCard开发的。它采用超媒体格式整合了高质量的彩色图像，也就是说，学生可以根据自己的意愿从一个主题跳到另一个主题。该项目有一个“图谱”，提供有关正在讨论的每个图像和主题的信息，还有一个“练习”，向学生提出关于一幅图像的问题，并根据学生的答案提供针对性的反馈。在练习中，要求学生输入问题的答案；答案通过文本识别来判断。对于每个问题，针对正确答案、错误答案以及多达10个“辅助答案”（可能会被想到但不正确的答案）都编写了反馈。马萨诸塞大学医学院组织学课程的教员鼓励在今年的课程中使用这个项目，并且从教员和学生那里得到的评价非常积极。
