Newkirk, Gary; And Others

Journal of Medical Education, v54 n7 p592-94 Jul 1979

A self-instructional health education program that utilizes a slide-tape device was studied to determine whether it could be educationally effective in an ambulatory clinical setting without being an inconvenience to patients. Infant and child nutrition was chosen as the topic to be used in the waiting room of a pediatric clinic. (JMD)
