Abstract

This work examines the design and architecture of a delivery system for a computerized, interactive tutorial on the physiology of the cardiovascular system. Emphasis in this paper is on the mechanisms used to coordinate the user's Lab Workbook, subject-oriented Information file, and the cardiovascular interaction (CVI) simulation model. Techniques described are sufficiently generic to allow for different tutorial content and/or different simulation models. Implementation uses Visual Basic and deployment is CDROM-based.
