Abstract/OtherAbstract:
Handheld technology has grown in both popularity and capabilities. Studies continue to be done on their impact in numerous fields. At The Ohio State University Medical Center, a handheld program was started in 2001, initially involving third- and fourth-year medical students and residents. The presence of these digital devices presented the opportunity to examine their use in taking traditional materials and delivering them in a personal digital assistant-friendly format. The objective was to offer these materials within an "anytime anywhere" set-up, thereby positively affecting the learning experience while also laying the foundation for other such uses.
