[Computer-assisted teaching in medical education--development of methods and supplemental materials].

A review of the elementary types of materials for the computer assisted learning (CAI--Computer Assisted Instruction) is given in this paper. It shows our initial experiences in creating the computer educational materials of the patient management simulation type, destinated for the primary care physicians. A computer simulation program "First Aid in Traffic Accident" is described as an example. A typical structure of these materials is shown. The materials had been developed using the own authoring system, a computer program which enables the teachers and other experts to create the computer educational materials independently, with the minimal help of the professional computer experts.
