MULTI-MEDIA TRAINING IN CYTOTECHNOLOGY

本项目的目标是开发一个多媒体培训站， 细胞遗传学技术专家，提供基本的遗传学培训， 最常见的细胞遗传学鉴定培训 通过胎盘穿刺或绒毛膜穿刺获得的中期细胞异常 绒毛取样 这个车站将直接通往 需要，但将在“产品系列”的概念下开发 因此，视频、图形和动画可以用作数据库， 肿瘤细胞遗传学培训项目的借鉴对象 和荧光原位杂交（FISH）。 扩大培训 第二阶段的能力不仅包括功能，而且包括目标 观众，与其他医疗专业人员，如辅导员模块 还有护士 具体来说，目标是利用当前经过验证的多媒体技术 作为一种有效和具有成本效益的培训工具。 发展是 不是由硬件驱动，而是由协商确定的培训需求驱动 与公认的专业人员在细胞遗传学，并纳入一个 为目标受众优化的教学设计。 的 “课程”将以一种可以在多个 Macintosh和IBM-PC。 的合作下 分包组织，拥有嵌入式专利技术 链接和排序成图像，培训工作站可以 有效地设计使用运动视频和动画以及声音 就像通常的图形和文本一样。 将开发一个经过验证的核型图像数据库，用于 第一阶段的概念验证（以及最后的初始产品发布 第一阶段）。 这个数据库将扩大到包括易位， 删除，和荧光图像在扩大的培训站， 培训应用程序将在第二阶段开发。

The goal of this project is to develop a Multimedia training station for cytogenetics technologists, supplying basic genetics training and training in identification of the most commonly occurring cytogenetic abnormalities in metaphase cells obtained by amniocentesis or chorionic villus sampling. This station will be directed toward the most immediate need, but will be developed under the concept of a "Family-Of-Products" so that video, graphic, and animations can be used as a database of objects from which to draw for training programs in cancer cytogenetics and fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH). Expanded training capabilities in Phase II will include not only functionality but target audience, with modules for other medical professionals such as counselors and nurses. Specifically, the goal is to utilize current proven Multimedia technology as a tool for effective and cost effective training. The development is driven not by hardware but by training needs, identified by consultation with recognized professionals in cytogenetics, and incorporated into an instructional design that is optimized for the target audience. The "lesson" will be developed in a way that can be presented on multiple platforms, specifically Macintosh and IBM-PC. In cooperation with the sub-contract organization, which has a patented technology for embedding links and sequencing into images, the training workstation can be effectively designed to use motion video and animation and sound as well as the usual graphics and text. A validated database of karyotype images will be developed, used in the proof of concept in Phase I (and the initial product release at the end of Phase I). This database will be expanded to include translocations, deletions, and fluorescent images in the expanded training station and training applications to be developed in Phase II.
