RESUMO
A goal ! The MOOC entitled "Introduction to Histology, A Human Tissue Exploration" correspond to our vision of the practice of General Histology, which is based on the ability to diagnose 5 families of biological tissues. Ultimately, participants must be able to recognize the different types of cells and all the surrounding elements in order to understand how they organize themselves to form tissues with specific functions. A tool ! This know-how is based on reasoning from observations of microscopic structures. Learners are therefore invited to manipulate a virtual microscope to explore biological samples on histological slides digitized. Annotations, comments, drawings or photos are associated with landmarks that enrich the study of these histological sections. A target audience ! Two educational paths allow deepening the subject in a different way and thus matching the goals or motivations of each one. After a first year of experience, usage statistics and surveys of our learners show that the MOOC Histo has allowed each of them to find an interest and federate a community of motivated learners.
