Creating an interactive multimedia computer-assisted instruction program.

Abstract

An interactive multimedia computer-assisted instruction on congenital heart disease was developed to increase nursing students' understanding of congenital heart disease. Computer-assisted instruction, with its ability to incorporate sound, visuals, and interactivity, provides a multimedia and interactive learning environment that enhances the teaching and learning process. Computer-assisted instruction is a cost- and time-effective teaching and learning strategy that can be tailored to the subject and student population. This article presents information regarding the process of developing an interactive multimedia computer-assisted instruction program on congenital heart disease.
