The authors developed a multiple-choice medical testing system delivered using the World Wide Web. It evolved from an older, single-platform, locally-developed computer-based examination. The old system offered a number of advantages over traditional paper-based examinations, such as digital graphics and quicker, easier scoring. The new system builds on these advantages with its true cross-platform design and the addition of hypertext learning responses. The benefits of this system will increase as more medical educational resources migrate to the Web. Faculty and student feedback has been positive. The authors encourage other institutions to experiment with Web-based teaching materials, including examinations. |
