The authors have developed a computer-assisted learning (CAL) multimedia on vital signs with animation and audio features for teaching in the classroom based on the 5Es inquiry cycle. When the CAL was tried on second-year undergraduates in two comparable schools, all groups of students gained significantly higher performance skills regardless of whether the groups were subjected to CAL/lecture or CAL/lecture/demonstration. However, they did not gain in factual knowledge. © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.Mahidol UniversityNursingSocial SciencesArticleSCOPUS10.1016/j.nedt.2008.06.010
