Abstract:
A survey was conducted by mailing two questionnaires to 80 medical schools to obtain information about their utilization of information technology (IT)-based teaching methods. We found that more than 80% of schools are using ITbased teaching materials and that some 95% have lecture rooms where IT-based teaching is possible. However, only 10% of schools had a specific section that systematically supports the creation of IT-based materials.
