and rationale This project was undertaken at the University of Nottingham and was funded by the university’s Teaching Enhancement Office using TLTP funding. Aside from the reported benefits of CAL as a method of delivery such as the development of lifelong skills and the scope for student directed learning, there were also more specific reasons for developing these packages. Students previously studied Cell Biology by looking at photographic slides of histology preparations and evaluations had indicated that some students found this method of delivery to be unsatisfactory. Some typical student comments are listed below.
