Background:

Effective teaching of seizure disorders necessitates diverse formats like images and videos.
Web technology offers a platform for integrating various formats and interactive elements.

Purpose of the Study:

To evaluate the impact of a Web-based interactive methodology on teaching seizure disorders.
To assess the benefits for third-year medical students during their neurology clerkship.

Main Methods:

A Web-based interactive program was developed and delivered via Blackboard.
Learning was assessed using a multiple-choice questionnaire.
Participants were randomized into a Web group (n=22) or a control group (n=22) receiving traditional materials.
