Case

What is it? §

• An Allele case is generally synonymous to a worksheet, learning module or patient visit within a space (educational course). Cases can further be broken down into smaller, bite-sized learning chunks called phases that contain specific pieces of educational material and/or specific student assessments. Navigating through a case can range from one in-class session through a few days or more.

Did You Know?

• If we use a book as an illustrative example:
  • a space would be the book itself
  • a case would be a chapter in the book
  • a phase would be a page within a chapter

Why is it important? §

• Cases in Allele are important because help instructors compartmentalize a set of material and associated assessments to convey a topic to their learners.
