Medical Faculty CAL Unit, Medical Illustration
University of Aberdeen
This suite of programs was developed for use by medical undergraduates in their clinical years. The CAL material covers a range of topics including hypercalcaemia, neonatology and cervical screening. They form part of an ongoing development of the application of multi-media CAL to medical teaching at Aberdeen. The standards and format are identical to the Toolbook teaching programs used in the pre-clinical years at Aberdeen. This facilitates the exchange of material between pre-clinical & clinical teaching and ease of undergraduate use throughout the medical curriculum. The cervical screening program requires the use of the Pathology laser disk. One of the short programs, the ELISA tutor, was developed and written by a medical undergraduate and clearly illustrates the ease with which CAL material can be created with Toolbook.
