Zurich University (Project Leader),
Bern, Basel and Lausanne Universities
The
E-GONE project is aimed at developing e-learning content in gynaecology
for medical students in the third to sixth year of their course, so that
they can prepare for lectures and tutorials, thoroughly explore specialized
subjects interactively, conduct discussions online, have quick access
to the binding rules set out in the Swiss Catalogue of Learning Objectives
and assess their progress themselves using interactive exercises.
Implementation of E-GONE covers four main areas: rich media content, seamless
notebook, interactive exercises and check questions as well as moderated
online forums plus inquiries with feedback from experts. Both disease-centered
and symptom-oriented approaches will be necessary for the course to be
integrated with the curricula of all partner faculties.
Course content in E-GONE is based on modules and designed for further
distribution. Content for three units has to be newly developed. The gynaecology
unit can draw on the content and experience of the ICT "VAM-Gyn"
project initiated by the University Hospital of Zurich.
