Auxiliary Study at Maastricht University

Abstract

To understand how often and how well medical and nursing students use information and data on the Internet for selflearning, we conducted a survey of students in the first through fourth years at Kochi Medical School. To allow comparison we also conducted a small survey of medical students at Maastricht University. These surveys indicated several problems in the use of the Internet by students at Kochi Medical School.
