Grid-Based Virtual Clinic for Medical Diagnosis Tutoring

Generally, new technologies enhance education and provide better services. The emerging gridbased technology is increasingly adopted, opening new way of teaching and learning. Learners, regardless of their different computer systems have access to knowledge across distributed sites. This is characterized all over the world, by the development of large scale tutoring systems. Commonly, classical teaching tools are based on information transfer approach rather than a synergic approach focused on knowledge construction. In this paper, we propose a grid-based virtual clinic for medical diagnosis tutoring. The concept leans on the case base reasoning theory for operational competency sharing from experienced doctors to medical students in a virtual organization.
