We established a medical education website to deliver real-time, clinical case-based education to sites in Somaliland from the UK. The website was based on a web 2.0 social networking concept in order to recreate, as nearly as possible, the clinical bedside teaching experience. A survey showed that medical students in Somaliland had sufficient computer access to exploit the website. Teaching began in December 2008 and the teaching programme has developed into a regular weekly teaching session involving up to seven different student groups in Somaliland at different locations. As well as north-south teaching, the website has been employed to support a study module in London. Small groups of UK-based medical students have been partnered with intern tutors in Somaliland. Forty UK students have taken part in this teaching, which is now in its second year. Feedback from those involved has demonstrated that a collaboration in which both north-south and south-north teaching occurs can strengthen partnerships in which both parties contribute and benefit.
我们建立了一个医学教育网站，以便从英国向索马里兰的各个地点提供实时的、基于临床病例的教育。该网站基于 Web 2.0 社交网络概念，以便尽可能真实地再现临床床边教学体验。一项调查显示，索马里兰的医学生有足够的计算机访问权限来利用该网站。教学于 2008 年 12 月开始，教学计划已发展成为一个定期的每周教学会议，涉及索马里兰不同地点的多达七个不同的学生群体。除了南北教学外，该网站还被用于支持伦敦的一个学习模块。来自英国的少数医学生与索马里兰的实习导师结对。已有 40 名英国学生参加了这项教学，目前已进入第二年。参与其中的人的反馈表明，南北和南南教学的合作可以加强双方都有贡献和受益的伙伴关系。
