Practical, well-designed, state-of-the-art resources are needed to help medical faculty enhance their skills as educators, researchers, administrators, and academics. Books, audio and video programs, CD-ROM-based programs, and interactive programs created for use on the Internet are needed for independent study, for peer learning, and for activities that are facilitated by faculty developers. The more pressure there is on faculty time, the more desirable becomes the availability of resources that can be used privately, flexibly, and in multiple locations (including home). In this paper, we 1) describe the strategies we used in identifying resources, 2) briefly describe some recently developed resources, 3) make observations about existing resources, and (4) make recommendations for the kinds of resources that need to be created and some criteria to consider when selecting and creating resources. The task of finding existing resources proved to be quite difficult, so as an outgrowth of the research done for this article, we created a Web site (http:@www.uchsc.edu/CIS) that provides a continually updated, annotated list of resources for faculty in the health professions and links to other sites with relevant information.
需要实用的、设计精良的、最先进的资源来帮助医学教师提升其作为教育工作者、研究人员、管理人员和学者的技能。需要书籍、音频和视频节目、基于光盘的程序以及为在互联网上使用而创建的交互式程序，用于自主学习、同伴学习以及由教师发展人员推动的活动。教师时间压力越大，就越需要能够私下、灵活且在多个地点（包括家中）使用的资源。在本文中，我们：1）描述我们在识别资源时所采用的策略，2）简要描述一些最近开发的资源，3）对现有资源进行观察，以及（4）针对需要创建的资源类型以及选择和创建资源时应考虑的一些标准提出建议。事实证明，查找现有资源的任务相当困难，因此作为本文研究的成果，我们创建了一个网站（http:@www.uchsc.edu/CIS），该网站提供一份为卫生专业教师不断更新的、带有注释的资源列表，并链接到其他包含相关信息的网站。
