Project Activities
TCAD will be developed using the following steps: 1) developing the storyboard and script, 2) transforming 2-D graphics into step-animations, 3) designing and producing 3-D anatomical reconstructions coupled with streaming animation, 4) integrating the voice-over (audio) component with the visual presentation and 5) formatting the TCAD prototype for viewing via website or DVD presentation. Following, the team will develop the modules. In order to assess feasibility and usability, and to gather data on potential efficacy, the interventions will be used as a supplement to the reproductive physiology courses at 7 Land Grant Universities. Outcome measures will be in the form of items from course exams. Observational data will also be collected.
