Mfa: A Web Application Using Art for Teaching Respiratory Infectious Diseases in Veterinary Science (original) (raw)

2016

Abstract

MFA (“Me Falta el Aire” / I can’t breathe) is an application for teaching Respiratory Infectious Diseases in Veterinary Science created by a multidisciplinary team of Art, Computer Science, and Veterinary teachers based on an artistic presentation of histological images through interactive web design. Understanding the development and evolution of histological lesions in infectious diseases is useful for understanding the natural history of the disease. Histological images have been selected to represent chronological events in the development of the disease according to scientific and technical criteria and have been worked on to reinforce their plastic and artistic presentation to evoke emotions. This application can be used to improve student skills to make accurate observations of pathological findings and foster active learning in teaching Infectious Diseases in Veterinary Science.
