OEM Rotation Computer Assisted Instructional Modules

The faculty and staff of the Occupational and Environmental Medicine Program at the Medical University of South Carolina have developed self-study OEM curriculum for primary care residents. The OEM curriculum consists of self-study PC programs or modules developed for Pentium-based PCs running Windows95 or higher. Each module is designed to be completed in 30 to 45 minutes. All programs include a pretest, posttest and an evaluation that the user is requested to complete before exiting the program. The evaluations are used to assess the appropriateness of content and the utility of the information presented. Pretest and posttest results and the evaluation can be printed at the time the resident completes those sections.
