The Foundation for Teaching Aids at Low Cost (TALC) produces a series of slides on different topics. This slide series is intended mainly to facilitate the teaching for medical students and students of the allied health science courses. Much of the text (accompanied with a particular slide series) is written in the pattern of question and answers. This is to emphasize the most important points, explain the common problems, and encourage students to think for themselves. Students may find it useful in their group discussions.
