description Abstract The Interview Teaching Tool (ITT) is an online web-based program designed to teach first- and second-year medical students proper interview content and technique. One can view the interview in its entirety or view specific portions. The program is broken down into eight sections: general introduction, history of present illness, past medical history, family history, social/sexual history, review of systems, presenting to the attending, and master interview. Each section contains a streaming video which introduces the section and exemplifies a proper interview. The program emphasizes proper questioning content and technique by demonstrating both inadequate and preferred methods. The webpage contains links to relevant checklist documents for each section. Students can view any section for review and print checklist supplements for rapid recall of key concepts and questions. The master interview section illustrates a full interview of a single simulated patient case. For continuity, appropriate portions of the master interview were included in each smaller section. Once the student has viewed all the previous sections, he/she can view the master interview in its entirety, integrating all the concepts learned. The ITT was integrated into the Essentials of Patient Care course at the University of Florida College of Medicine during the 2005–2006 academic year. Video excerpts have been employed in faculty-led class and small group sessions.
