Repurposing text books to flash cards

Chris, one of our team members, has taken on the communications with Manson Publishing. He has been going through their Self-Assessment Colour Review series of books.  These feature great images of cases with questions asking about the case.  Manson publishing have given WikiVet permission to use 10% of their material from these books on the site, so Chris has spent time going through these books and selecting the best range of questions.  These cases have then been integrated into WikiVet’s flashcard format, which allows the user to think about an answer before revealing it.  We have also been creating links from these cases and answers to articles within WikiVet, so that the leaner can read more information on the topic if required.
