heal.abstract	A veterinary anatomy tutoring system was developed by using Knowledge Pro (R), an object-oriented software development tool with hypermedia capabilities, and MS Access (R), a relational database. Communication between them is facilitated by using the Structured Query Language (SQL). The architecture of the system is based on knowledge sets, each of which covers four different descriptions of an organ, namely gross anatomy (general description), gross anatomy (comparative features), histology, and embryology, which constitute the knowledge units. These knowledge units are linked with three global variables that define the animals, the topographies, and the system to which this organ belongs, creating three data-bases. These three data-bases are interrelated through the organ field in order to establish a relational model. This system allows versatility in the student's navigation through the information space by offering different modes for information location and presentation. These include course mode, review mode, reference mode, dissection mode, and comparison mode. In addition, the system provides a self-evaluation mode.	en
