With the goal of using the full power of the World Wide Web for computer-based education, we developed an interactive system for training in dermatology with a database of several thousand color images. The system consists of lecture scripts, case reports with recorded sound, an online atlas, and a quiz system--all relying on the underlying image database. The images used have been reviewed and rated by a senior dermatologist. At present, they are described with a hierarchical key system that permits searching for images by their content. We have evaluated our statistics on access and the results of an open user survey based on an adaptive questionnaire. The responses to 200 questionnaires completed in a two-month study period are encouraging. The online resources are being used not only for training in dermatology but also for continuing education and reference.
为了充分利用万维网的强大功能开展基于计算机的教育,我们开发了一个用于皮肤科培训的交互式系统,该系统拥有一个包含数千张彩色图像的数据库。该系统由讲稿、带有录音的病例报告、在线图谱和一个测验系统组成——所有这些都依赖于基础图像数据库。所使用的图像已经由一位资深皮肤科医生进行了审核和评级。目前,它们通过一个分层索引系统进行描述,该系统允许根据图像内容进行搜索。我们评估了访问统计数据以及基于自适应问卷的公开用户调查结果。在为期两个月的研究期内完成的200份问卷的回复令人鼓舞。这些在线资源不仅用于皮肤科培训,还用于继续教育和参考。
