Abstract:
A new educational program for the medical doctor was introduced at Tokyo Women's Medical College in 1990 with a 4-year tutorial education model as its core. To develop the program for educational training more efficiently, current facilities were reviewed on a large scale, and various types of equipment and supplementary materials were made available. We are now investigating utilization and problems of the current program. Supplies and materials of tutorial rooms and mirror rooms have been used effectively. The library has become increasingly useful as a place for independent study and research. However, audiovisual materials have not yet been made fully available. We suggest that further improvements to the system and fostering an environment of open access to information are necessary to increase the accessibility of the support system for tutorial education.
