'e-learning' is not the right word for this....
most modern unis, and newer medical education systems have moved from the lecture based didactic style to a more interactive tutorial system, with guided but self/group directed problem based learning......
this applies to all courses, not just medicine......eg, in most aussie unis, contact hours is average 4-5 per subject, so students taking the usual 4 subjects per semester will have an average total contact hours of 16-20/week.....half of this will be tutorials.....some squeeze this into 3 days, and the other 4 days a week they are free!.....
msian students used to the usual didactic education system always complains about 'poor' teaching in these places....'in spite of paying so much money'.....they expect to be spoon fed......

, malaysian are used to spoon fed, which is one of the failures in education. and due to that, we r not motivated and discipline enough to further advance our studies on our own paced.
