Educational Support with Tele-dental-medicine System
Abstract: The advent of the Internet enables educational connection in multidirectional ways and is in the process of realizing new interactive educational environment. As an approach to the huge volume of knowledge required of students, I have applied this Tele-dental-medicine System which was originally developed to promote cooperation between dental students and teachers. This system enables exchange of medical images between users. Every student, who was permitted to use the system, could have an access to sharp medical images whenever and wherever he/she has internet-capable environment. Someone may have a discussion on medical images stored in the database with other students or with teachers on the Internet. On the other hand, teacher would find studentsâ€Eweak points and blind spots at an easier rate than before, which would be reflected to e-teaching and actual lectures. This research has indicated that interactive education via Internet gives advantageous effects on both sides.
