Sažetak
It is postulated that World Wide Web has enormous potential to improve provision of medical education. Improvement is concieved not only through rapid dissemination of newly generated knowledge, but also through innovative multimedia and interactive approach, establishing a student-centered learning environment. Bearing that in mind, a project entitled 'Teleinterventional Gastroenterology (TIGEL)' has been designed at the Center of Interventional Gastroenterology, Zagreb University Hospital. The aim of the project, supported by the grant form the Ministry of Science and Technology of the Republic of Croatia, is to develop a web-based system of continuous medical education for specialists in gastroenterology. Within the project, a web site has been published at the server of the Zagreb Medical School (www.mef.hr/edumed/gastro/).Main feature of the web site comprises educational materials as well as the e-mail based clinical consultation service for practicing gastroenterologists and family physicinas in Croatia. Experiences in the provision of such integrated educational – consultation approach to the physicians will be presented.
