| Kurzbeschreibung
With undergraduate and postgraduate curricula increasingly delivered or supported by electronic means, it is time for both learners and teachers to develop the specific skills that are essential to successful e-learning, but seldom taught in medical school. This concise guide, based on the authors' experience in e-learning, is accessible to any novice and supplies a basic grounding in using technology to learn, to teach, and to conduct research.
