Title
A SCORM Compliant e-learning Platform for Cervical Cancer Prevention
Abstract
Cervical cancer is the second most common cause of cancer deaths in women around the world. The primary underlying cause is infection with high risk type(s) of the human papillomavirus (HPV). In this paper, a framework of developing an e-learning platform with standardized educational material about prevention of uterine cervical cancer and management of precancerous lesions is provided. As technological evolutions during the last decades along with the appearance of international educational standards affect incrementally every facet of education, numerous medical courses will have to be implemented online, and in compliance with SCORM. This paper outlines the efforts undertaken within the Medical School of AUTH to provide such e-courses to GPs. The main conclusion drawn from the first pilot evaluations indicate that learners are capable and ready to use such e-learning technologies.
