The aim of the study was to test the efficacy of a new courseware. In a pre and post test frame, students were given the software to be used during one semester. A significant increase in the students' general study motivation was shown at the end of the semester. A change in the use and attitudes towards computers could not be observed. In a follow-up survey at the end of the semester, the students stated that the program was indeed helpful and useful but that they have had difficulties with the program's technical aspects and the general use. Furthermore, the results show that the majority of the participating students accepted the program's content, the general study motivation was high and the students showed a significant increase in learning gains, determined by the differences from pre and post test values. Especially students with low pre test values seemed to profit from the additional use of learning material, resp. the presented courseware. At the end of the semester the students with low and middle pre test results showed an increase in performance as well as an alignment in the performance for diagnosing rheumatological diseases to the students of the upper third pre test results.
