SPECIAL DEMONSTRATION
A PDA Survival Guide for the Clinical Neurosciences

McMaster University, Hamilton, Ontario, Canada
ABSTRACT:
A PDA version of
selected information from www.neurosurvival.ca, a web site dedicated to
providing information needed by learners and others as they confront clinical
situations and learning opportunities while at work in clinical settings. For
example, the How to Read a CT Scan of the Brain provides an anatomy guide and
other aids to interpretation of such images. We have linked the material on
this PDA set of information to the objectives and evaluations components of
structured electives in neurosurgery for medical students and for rotating
non-neuroscience residents.
BENEFIT TO PARTICIPANTS ATTENDING SESSION:
A variety of presentation techniques are
included in our PDA for learners on our service. Because most entries have been
made by learners themselves a refreshingly imaginative and varied set of
entries have been brought together. How to Read a CT Scan of the Brain is an
example. We hope that this demonstration will be of interest to those who share
our interest in making best use of these devices for learners active in
clinical situations.
