The EDT develops e-learning for the Faculty of Medical Sciences of the University of Groningen.

Together with our clients - often medical professionals - we develop digital learning materials to support medical education.

Furthermore, we can inform and advice teachers and managers about the educational use of e-learning (tools).

This is a showcase of the work we do and the expertise we can offer as a team.

Within a module you can guide the student through an educational subject. Display different types of content, depending on the learning objective. Modules have a high degree of interactivity what encourages self-directed learning and active participation.

Illustrations communicate your key messages in a way that is understandable, attractive and engaging. We offer a variety of visuals: simple, detailed, both medical and non-medical and infographics.

Video is perfect for visualizing the real world. There are endless possibilities. From sharing personal (patient) stories to explaining complex concepts to re-enacting real life situations. You name it we frame it.

Animations can be used to break complex processes into bite-sized steps that the viewer can follow and understand at their own pace.

Interactive 3D models are ideal for visualizing complex spatial structures and processes, bridging the gap between anatomical subjects and their 2D representation in medical imagery.

Do you have an idea how to improve your education? Together we can explore new ways to use and combine our expertises to create new digital learning materials.

Cases

In a collaboration with the Pediatrics and Cardiology department, two modules on echocardiography involving 3D-models of the heart were made.

To explain students step by step the typical dislocation patterns of the discus in the jaw, we have created a module and interactive video together with the oral rehabilitation department.

The pathology department came to us with the question to explain the complex interplay between antigens, antigen presenting cells, T-cells and B-cells within the lymph node step by step in a visual way.
