“…One speculative explanation for these discrepancies is the maturity of students involved in the studies because Martin et al (2004) reported that women use computers more frequently in the work force. More recently, it was also reported that female medical students tended to view video clips for e-learning more frequently than males (Romanov and Nevgi, 2007). It is noteworthy that the gender differences we found were associated only with specific CAI (''Forum'' and ''Flash,'' but not the ''Quiz'' CAI or the portal logins), further suggesting that factors such as CAI design and applicability affect their use by specific students.…”

Web-based computer-aided instruction (CAI) has become increasingly important to medical curricula. This multi-year study investigated the effectiveness of CAI and the factors affecting level of individual use. Three CAI were tested that differed in specificity of applicability to the curriculum and in the level of student interaction with the CAI. Student personality preferences and learning styles were measured using the Meyers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) and Kolb's Learning Style Inventory (LSI). Information on ''computer literacy'' and use of CAI was collected from student surveys. Server logs were used to quantify individual use of respective CAI. There was considerable variability in the level of utilization of each CAI by individual students. Individual use of each CAI differed and was associated with gender, MBTI preferences and learning style, but not with ''computer literacy.'' The majority of students found the CAI useful for learning and used the CAI by themselves. Students who accessed the CAI resources most frequently scored significantly higher on exams compared with students who never accessed the resources. Our results show that medical students do not uniformly use CAI developed for their curriculum and this variability is associated with various attributes of individual students. Our data also provide evidence of the importance of understanding student preferences and learning styles when implementing CAI into the curriculum.

“…Sixty-nine college students reported that they felt that the streaming video clips acted as learning reinforcement and that the clips supported their attention and learning styles. Kukulska-Hulme, Foster-Jones, Jelfs, Mallett, and Holland [10] investigated the usefulness of digital video applications in distance learning.…”

“…There are few documented and evaluated examples of the use of streaming video in post-secondary education environments [9]. Romanov [10] looked at the use of six learning modules with integrated video clips in WebCT with medical students. Sixty eight percent of the students watched the videos, and video watchers were more active in the course.…”

“…Our literature review found that various studies on digital learning instruction had been conducted in the area of conventional medical education. [17][18][19] These studies have researched topics including active and reflective question usage in web-based instruction; 17 video clip uses and collaborative learning tools in e-learning settings; 20 and the use of an interactive computer-based training program (ICBT) on dementia in different European countries. 21 …”

Context:The knowledge and terms of Traditional Chinese Medicine are abstract and difficult for students and the public to understand in the present day. Aim: This article describes the development of Traditional Chinese Medicine computer courseware on DVD and the study done for determining whether instructions designed digitally are as effective as the instructions explained in the traditional lectures for students to acquire awareness of the abstract concepts and terms of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Settings and Design: Two units on Traditional Chinese Medicine were taught to 198 Taiwanese students: 153 students studied using the traditional classroom lecture method and 45 students studied using computer courseware on DVD. Results: Quantitative data on pre-test and post-test and qualitative data on open-ended responses regarding the experience of using the courseware were collected and analyzed. The post-test scores of both the lecture group and DVD courseware group were significantly higher than the pre-test scores. However, the results showed that the score gains between the pre-test and post-test scores of the two groups did not differ. Qualitative responses demonstrated that the students responded positively to using courseware. Since we are not denying the effectiveness of the face-to-face lectures, this result indicated that welldesigned courseware is as effective as classroom lectures. Digital materials on the DVD courseware could assist learners for autonomous learning.
