Abstract
Medical teachers and practising doctors were surveyed by questionnaire and given pre- and post-tests to determine the efficiency and effectiveness of Practical Reviews in Cancer Management, a cassette tape programme of continuing medical education (CME). Doctors indicated a high degree of satisfaction with this approach; in particular the idea of keeping abreast of the current literature while commuting in their cars was appealing. The programme's effectiveness was measured by pre- and post-tests, and the data were analysed by the non-directional t-test for dependent groups. These tests indicated a significant (P less than 0.001) increase in knowledge from the pre- to post-tests.Keywords
