Approach to developing a e-learning course on infectious diseases

Abstract

We described an approach to developing a clinical e-learning course was developed using four-component instructional design system that advocates creating learning tasks based on real-life clinical problems. Learning tasks are supplemented by structured information required for successful problem solving. Four-component instructional can be applied in distant education by use of different software and different e-learning environments.

Keywords:problem-based learning, fourcomponent instructional design system, e-learning course, clinical course «Infectious Disease»
