Multimedia Anatomy Tutorial (MAT)

We will create a prototype of an instructionally designed interactive computer anatomy course in huembryology. This prototype will assess the best delivery of images and data to UCSF medical studentsvia the Internet using the program Mosaic, a public domain software. The prototype will concentratebody folds and mesenteries in the third through eighth weeks of gestation. It is the formation of ththe greatest difficulty for beginning students. Sophisticated images including three dimensional vieanimated diagrams and MetaMapped relational links will be incorporated into the instructional designevaluated success of this project, the entire anatomy course will be interactively designed. The extis to make this material commercially available to other teaching institutions including secondary scommercially would be on CD ROMs.
