Abstract

A comparison of computer-assisted learning and small tutorial group teaching was carried out in the instruction of final year medical students in anaesthesia. The scores attained by fifteen of the sixteen students were higher after computer-assisted learning than after small group teaching. Statistical analyses of the results demonstrated that in this study computer-assisted learning was significantly better than small tutorial teaching.
