A series of fourteen audiotape-slide presentaiions on clinical physics and measurement were produced for self instruction by junior anaesthetists. A comparison of group and individual teaching carried out on fifteen trainees indicated no difference between the effectiveness of the two methods. In both cases almost 90% of the lecture points could be immediately recalled. Most students however preferred individual tuition. The assessment also allowed a comparison of individual lectures so that upgrading, modifying and rewriting of the appropriate lectures or parts of lectures could be carried out. The tapeslide technique and the format used was found to be very acceptable to the anaesthetists taking part. The flexibility of audiotape-slide lectures as a teaching medium is discussed.
