| Description | As with other educational fields, medicine is looking to new technologies to facilitate instruction and improve learning. The medical academic community is witnessing a migration of traditional, instructor-led curriculum toward small-group teaching situations that include the use of interactive multimedia and computer-based learning environments (Bouchard, Lajoie, & Fleiszer, 1995). Educational applications were identified as a research field in artificial intelligence in medicine over two decades ago (Shortliffe, 1984) but with limited success. Lillehaug and Lajoie (1998)reviewed this literature and provided a plan for empowering medical personnel in problem solving through the use of technology. In this chapter, we review three such applications in terms of the cognitive tools that they provide to learners: Bio-World, a system to support scientific reasoning about disease; the SICU tutor designed to support patient assessments in a surgical intensive care unit; and the RadTutor, a system to support radiology residents in their diagnostic interpretation of mammograms.
