PUMP is a web-based multimedia application, meant as an interactive support in several subject areas of the logopedic education. This educational programme is well suited for the use of multimedia pedagogics since the students need to be trained in various skills with dimensions of both auditive and visual perception, areas that can very well be better integrated by computer-based training than by traditional methods. We have started with the area of voice pathology and treatment. The programme in logopedics at Lund University is based on Problem Based Learning (PBL). Therefore one of the self-test parts in the application consists of problem based cases. This report is the first step in an evaluation of the PUMP application as a whole. This first step describes the ongoing evaluation and assessment which the students perform when working with PUMP. Through the evaluation it is possible to continuously improve and adapt the application. The report also describes how the students experience the usability of the application and how that correlates with the expectations of the developers. The main ideas and the content of the application will also be presented.
