Annotated articles

Annotated articles are original scientific publications enhanced with embedded definitions, links to self-directed learning pages, and thought-provoking questions. They also include guidance on how to read, evaluate, and present a scientific paper. This resource can be used for independent study or in journal club sessions, where participants may be asked to present either the article itself or an experimental design addressing a question similar to the one raised in the publication.

Interactive biological or medical cases<

These cases are supported by a dedicated web application and can be explored individually or in small groups as part of a case-based learning (CBL) program. As learners progress through the case, they answer quizzes designed to help them identify knowledge gaps and receive targeted self-learning material to achieve predefined learning objectives.

Virtual microscope tools

Virtual microscopy resources are designed for use before and during histology practicals. These online practicals feature annotated virtual slides accompanied by related teaching materials, helping learners develop essential observational and analytical skills.

Self-assessment tools

The objectives of self-assessments are multifaceted.
 

• • They promote reflective practice and self-monitoring by encouraging learners to critically evaluate their performance and progress. They also reinforce academic integrity by fostering self-accountability. Ultimately, self-assessments support the development of self-awareness, self-regulation, and personal growth.
  • HSeT’s self-assessments use online quizzes that provide grades and detailed feedback—typically a didactic explanation and/or a link to a relevant webpage. Question types include multiple choice, multiple response, true/false, pull-down lists, and free-text responses.
  • These quizzes also generate valuable feedback for instructors on the effectiveness of course content and delivery. In addition, they support asynchronous learning by offering trainees a structured way to verify their understanding and track their progress without requiring immediate instructor inp
