摘要：Wayne State University Medical School has implemented wireless handheld computers or PocketPCs (PPCs) into all four years of the undergraduate curriculum. A transition from a passive to an interactive learning environment in the classroom, as well as administrative solutions for monitoring patient encounter data by students in their clinical rotations was fostered by this educational technology. Implementation of the wireless devices into the curriculum will be described in this report. This will include the technical specifications and justification for the required device, as well as a detailed discussion of the different applications used for educational and administrative purposes by the preclinical and clinical students. Outcomes from the educational and administrative aspects of the project will also be presented in this report.
