Abstract

The paper describes an interactive computer program for an IBM-compatible personal computer, which creates a convenient way of teaching Chinese students of the physiological and biological sciences about the relationship of several aspects of ionic equilibria to the generation of resting membrane potential. Students may work through this program following the scheduled lectures on those subjects. Laboratory time is also used for discussion and questions, and to present advanced examples of ionic equilibria in biological systems. The authors believe that this program will provide students with a clear understanding of the rules of ionic electricity and the generation of membrane potentials, as well as improving their problem-solving skills.
