The author analysed the present program and then surveyed the student's need by self administrated questionnaires. By one student modeling, the computer learning program has been developed and then the program was remodeled into the whole(80-90) students program.

Results

The students thought that the current health statistical experiment was useful but laborius. And they wanted to try to new program with computer statistical package. In the aspect of trial on new educational method, the model of computer learning program in Health Statistics has been developed.
