E-learning templates for peripheral vascular stenting

The RT3S training application is designed to enable tutors (expert surgeons) prepare educational content for their students, and the students (future surgeons) to be trained on the assessment of real patient cases on peripheral vascular stenting. It incorporates state-of-art technologies (i.e., LAMS) for system design and adopts the latest e-learning standards (i.e., IMS Learning Design) for the implementation of training scenarios. In this work, we focus on the structure of the clinical scenarios that constitute the core of the RT3S training application. In RT3S, creating or accessing learning scenarios does not require that the author (tutor) or the learner (student) be familiar with any programming environment. The learning scenario allows the learners to follow an educational scenario and interact with their tutor.
