Basic Concepts


What is a 'Case'?

Provides the content of an Activity, medical content through which the purpose of the Activity can be achieved (learning, practicing, or testing certain skills or knowledge), and also accommodates questionnaires aimed at the different participants of an Activity. Cases provide background and guidelines for a simulation exercise: a Standardized Patient (SP)-learner encounter or Learner interaction with a manikin/simulator. → See Case Manager

What is an 'Activity'?

Incorporates Cases that learners are expected to complete over an extended period of time. It also includes the components of a controlled medical training experience, such as planning, site management, data entry, advanced video recording features, evaluation, and report preparation. → See Activity Manager

What is an 'Event'?

Activity schedules are broken into Events. An Event is a period of time when station setup and SP assignments are the same. This means that throughout the Event, the same Case(s) with the same SP(s) run(s) in the same room(s). You can set up events in the Calendar or in Advanced Scheduling. 
 → See How to Understand Concepts within Advanced Scheduling. 

What is a 'Recording'?

SP-Learner encounters or Learner interactions with a manikin/simulator can be recorded for evaluation/analysis.

💡 For more, see the Recording Module and Video Review.

What are 'Checklists'?

Learners, Faculty members, and SPs can submit different checklists (through 'data entry') to complete assessments, to provide feedback, or to evaluate certain aspects of this workflow (Learner performance, SP performance, Activity content, etc.)

What are 'Reports'?

You can access performance evaluations and responses to different checklists within the system, with advanced filtering and a data export option. Based on the data entered by learners, SPs, and faculty members, you can generate several different reports: they help you to evaluate the performance of learners, SPs, and the effectiveness of Cases. 

💡 For more, see the Reports Module.
