## What is a Case?

**Cases** provide the content to an [**Activity**](/doc/activity-manager-8Z2fsIu6LP), medical content through which the purpose of the Activity can be achieved (*learning, practicing,* or *testing certain skills or knowledge*).


:::info
* **Cases** present **background and guidelines to a simulation exercise:**
  * **Standardized Patient (SP)-Learner encounter**
  * **or Learner interaction with a manikin/simulator.**  
* Cases also include **questionnaires** for the different participants in an Activity.

## Who can access the Case manager?

| Necessary privilege to access the module: **==Case Author==**Users with Case Author privilege* have read-and-write access to the functions in the module **for Cases shared with them,**  <br> * can only edit Cases in the Case content editor that are **not assigned to any Activity**. Once [**assigned to an Activity**](/doc/how-to-assign-cases-to-activities-wc3Eq5Zkjq), the Case Author privilege no longer grants editing access. **==Case Author (full control)==**A user with full control privilege has* read-and-write access to the functions in the module **for Cases shared with the user**,  <br> * can edit those in the Case content editor even after the Case is **assigned to an Activity,** <br> * can modify Case copies as long as the sharing is not withdrawn. |

:::warning
When a Case is **copied,** all of its **specifications**, including the **sharing assignments**, are **duplicated** as well; consequently, the copied Case will be shared by default with any **Case Author or Case Author (full control) user** the original Case has been shared with.
