      Best practices for creating a Seminar

      A step-by-step guide with best practices for creating high-quality, case-based teaching sessions.

      🔹 Step 1. Pre-Upload: Prepare Your Case Data

      Before uploading a case:

      • Preview and remove unnecessary series or images

      • Aim to upload only essential images or series, keeping the study as small as possible 

      Fewer images help:

      • Maintain audience focus

      • Improves upload and access speeds

      ⚠️ You won’t be able to delete a series or image from your case after starting the upload.

      ⚠️ Please preview and remove any unwanted series or images before uploading the case data or creating a draft.


      🔹 Step 2. Draft Case

      When creating your Draft case:

      💡 Tip: Adding complete details early will streamline seminar setup.

      • Publish the case to the event group or your group.
      • 🔧 Optional: After publication, use the Add Study to Case, Edit Case, or Revert to Draft options to include more content or make further adjustments to your case.

      🔹 Step 3. Create a Collection - Case Playlist

      • Create a new Collection and add each published case to the collection via case options.

      • Your collection can include your cases posted in other groups as long as:

        • You are the publisher of the case and have created the collection

          seminar-1

      • Use drag and drop to order your cases in the collection

      • When ready, click Create a Seminar from the collection options at the top.

      🔹 Step 4. Curate Your New Seminar

      Use the ✏️ pencil tool to edit:

      • Modify the Seminar name, Case titles, Diagnosis, and Clinical Detail fields (optional)

      • Hide or unhide cases not needed, and the Diagnosis and Clinical Details fields.

      • For each case, you can add multiple-choice questions and Polls using the Questions button.

      • You can further add slides directly into the seminar as a JPEG. For example, if you wish to add a title page or add case summaries after the images, you can export slides as a JPEG from programs such as PowerPoint or Google Slides and then upload them into the Seminar.
      💡 Tip: Investing time in creating high-quality content pays off in long-term reuse.

      🔹 Step 5. Final Review and Share

      • Review the seminar from start to finish before presenting it.

      • Check that cases, slides, and text fields not meant for the audience to see at launch are hidden.

      • Click Share, and set access start/end dates, + Add a password.seminar share

      • Tip: Use a URL shortener or hyperlink to tidy the long link (optional)

      • Present the seminar to reveal answers and control hidden fields.

      ♻️ Step 6. Reuse and Maintain

      Create as many seminar variations as you wish via the original collection or using the duplicate button. 

      📝 Additional Tips

      • Editing Cases Within Seminars
        Changes made inside a seminar will not affect the original published case — ideal for adapting the same case to different audiences.
      • The default viewer layout of the original case will be applied and cannot be modified for a seminar case.
      🔒 Locking Access to an audience 
      To restrict audience access to your shared seminar at any time:

      Share the seminar again - changing the password, and/or defining new access dates.

      💡 Tip: To practice or preview the audience view, open the shared link in an incognito/private tab (Companion Mode).
