Note: Everybody is viewing the demo cases as the same generic learner.  In contrast to the actual curriculum, there are no "self-vs-peers" perspectives for these cases.  When you log off, I "forget" that you have done them.

(Special Information for Learners)
Some unique features within this curriculum

Many cases present images with which you directly interact.  That is, you will either click findings on an image, or you will click a "None" button to signify that you think the examination is normal, or you will click a "No More" button to signify that you think there are no additional findings other than what you have already indicated.  These interactive images are called "Visual Interactive Questions".  Some cases with Visual Interactive Questions will also allow you to open a new browser window with a zoom-and-pan player in order to give you a more detailed look at the findings.  You cannot "click in" the findings on the zoom-pan image.  You must click in your findings on the Visual Interactive Question.  This will be obvious once you see it. 

As you complete tasks on a Visual Interactive Question, hyperlinks that correspond to the findings will become visible on the left side of the image-display panel.  These hyperlinks will be displayed in green.  Hovering your mouse cursor over such a hyperlink will cause the "solution image" (e.g., annotated version of the "unknown") to be redisplayed along with explanatory text being displayed  just underneath the image in a cell with green background.

Additionally, some cases will ask you text-centric questions in traditional formats (T/F, multiple-choice, check-all-that-apply), and you will click in your answers.  If a case has more than one such question, the questions will be incrementally revealed.  You will see that there is an intentional "sequentialness" to the entire curriculum in order to try and simulate the real world.

Once an interactive question (either as text or as a Visual Interactive Question) has been completed, a glyph will be displayed next to it as either   or , along with a small blue text hyperlink that you can click to pop up an instant perspective of how well you did on the question relative to everybody else and, (if you are re-doing the coursework) whether or not you got the question right/wrong the first time vs this time.  In addition to being clickable, the blue hyperlink itself displays some quick info.  The hyperlink will look like this: [All: 33.3% (6)] which means that 6 other learners have tried to answer the same question, and  33% of them got it right on their first try.   The comparative performance metrics are continually recomputed on the server so that the numbers you see are near real time.

In the real world, a lot of on-call cases are normal.  One of the more difficult tasks for an on-call resident is distinguishing normal from abnormal.  The curriculum attempts to address this issue by including normal examinations as well as abnormal ones.
