Abstract

Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) have experienced a surge in recent years across all social sectors; the healthcare field is no exception. Their effective use has made a difference starting at the undergraduate level, where, in a manner of speaking, they have made the overall teaching process more engaging. Indeed, the digital age has transformed the needs and procedures of educational institutions. Although their integration into the educational sphere has not been as rapid as once hoped, it is undeniable that today, this integration is a reality.
