What is Microcomputer-aided Instruction for Ob-gyn Education about?

PC-CAI is a computer program that presents text characters from a word-processed file. The software was created to allow rapid authoring of computer-aided-instruction modules or multiple choice tests that give explanation and feedback to the student about their choice of responses. The program is IBM-PC/XT/AT compatible under MS-DOS. It is used in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology for medical students to supplement faculty lectures and also to administer pre- and post-tests to those students. The program is additionally used to create practice tests for our residents to prepare for their in-training exams. The software's main forte is to create multiple choice question modules, with feedback and explanations, that serve as learning tools rather than just as testing tools. Its use has enabled our department to create a comprehensive set of teaching modules in a relatively short period of time. These modules are easily modifiable as medical concepts or teacher emphasis changes.
