"Teaching Cell Biology with HyperCELL"
A Workshop on the Use of Computers in Higher Education
July 3-6, 1994
University Hospital (AKH), University of Vienna, Austria

The workshop will be conducted in English and is limited to 24 participants
Organizers:
Richard Marz, University of Vienna, Austria

The workshop will be held in cooperation with the Learning Resource Center
and the Institute of Medical Chemistry, Medical School, University of Vienna,

HyperCELL by Gene Williams (distributed by Garland Publishing) is a cell
biology computer program consisting of text, graphics, and animated diagrams
coupled with the appropriate navigational tools to form a learning
environment. It can also be used as an electronic companion to the textbook
Molecular Biology of the Cell, by Bruce Alberts, et al. (Garland, 1989 and
1994).
At the workshop we will:
*  provide a hands-on introduction to the program
*  discuss our experiences in using it in the classroom
*  focus on comparing computer programs to traditional textbooks
*  develop informational elements for the computer
*  discuss the specific computer technology needs of university-level
teaching and learning

The workshop will offer many opportunities for informal discussion. Social
events will include a view of medicine and medical education at the
University of Vienna as practiced during the last centuries and today.
