Challenges and Perspectives of Computer-assisted Instruction in Medical Education. Lessons Learned from Seven Years of Experience with the CAMPUS System
Keywords: Computer-assisted instruction, medical education, problem-based learning
OBJECTIVES: In this paper we discuss solutions to the problem that medical teachers and students do not use modern computer-assisted instruction systems in medical education as much as expected by their developers. METHODS: As an example for a modern problem-based CAI system we introduce the CAMPUS shell system for case-based training in medicine. RESULTS: CAMPUS has received several awards and positive evaluation results. Nevertheless, the usage of such systems in courses and for self-study could be increased. CONCLUSIONS: Curricular integration of CAI as well as further improvements on existing CAI systems to increase the usage in medical education is essential.
