Abstract:
A computer-assisted learning (CAL) package developed for undergraduate teaching in orthodontics is described. The programme makes use of the principle of 'hypertext'. The ability of undergraduates to learn from the programme is evaluated and compared to students taught conventionally. The opinions of the undergraduates who tried the programme are sought and discussed.
