Abstract

The authors examine the question of what health science students need to appreciate and use state-of-the-art systems. They report on an instructional approach that is flexible enough to fit a variety of curricular constraints. It uses integrated educational software and a locally produced booklet on augmented DOS essentials by modules on programming, systems analysis, and applications. Evaluations from classes totaling over 200 students demonstrate the effectiveness of this approach.
