An Anatomy Primer for Medicine & Science

This short suite of programs, written using the Asymetrix Multimedia Toolbook authoring package, is for use by pre-clinical medical and science undergraduates as part of their histology practical classes in Anatomy. The material covers the macro and microscopic structure of the principle components of the human nervous system. It uses an extensive collection of digitised images obtained from histological sections,together with appropriate tutorial material linked to a series of problems and multiple choice questions. It allows several attempts at each problem offering hints and tips before giving the correct answer. The program is divided into three main sections linked together with a general introduction. The sections comprise:

1. The Peripheral Nervous System
2. The Central Nervous System
3. The Autonomic Nervous System

Features

• Highly structured self-paced teaching module linked to an extensive image database.
• Good attempt to alleviate technical difficulties of teaching histology in large practical classes.

Although each toolbook will run "stand alone" they are designed to run as a single package.

Install all of the files into the same area on your hard disk, Note that your system requires 256 colours on the video driver to show the images to their best advantage.

This suite was written using MultiMedia Toolbook v3.0, and comes as a self installing set of files. Copy the self extracting archive NERVE.EXE into a temporary directory and run it. Then click on SETUP.EXE in File Manager and follow the on screen instructions
