A Learning System in Histology

By Deborah W. Vaughan

This CD-ROM with accompanying manual introduces medical, allied health and undergraduate students to the logic of anatomical thinking and the microscopic structure of the body's tissues. It is not a full electronic atlas with hyperlinks of pictures to text but rather a review of morphology that supplements the history lab where students look through a microscope at slides of tissue specimens.

Finally, an effective learning system for medical histology

Vaughan's Medical Histology offers a highly innovative and very effective method for learning medical histology. This is a learning system designed from a student's perspective. It offers 24-hour access to a histology laboratory equipped with a high-quality slide collection and staffed by a brilliant and patient instructor. The textbook narrative is clear, concise, and accurate. The CD-ROM images are far better than the slides in most medical school teaching collections, and the labelled black and white images encourage interactive learning and self-testing. Vaughan's Medical Histology enables students to rapidly and reliably master both histological skills and histological concepts. Deborah Vaughn is an award-winning teacher at Boston University Medical School. For a very reasonable price, Vaughan's Medical Histology enables students and instructors at other universities to benefit from her vast knowledge of histology and from her highly effective teaching methods.
