=====  Custom Interaction Modes =====

On this page a trainer/supervisor can freely how some or all trainees can interact with the case collections.\\

Changes to the interaction mode can be made by Supervisors per case collection(s) and per user(s) at any time before or during a training session, giving you the power to reveal, hide, and lock case collections and associated forms/consensus scores whenever you need to.\\
There are several different [[interaction_modes|interaction modes]] as shown below in the video:

**1. Creating a Customized Interaction Mode**

To create a customized interaction mode, you must have administrator access to the “Backend” section of the Pathotrainer software. This option is highlighted in the red box in the first screenshot shown below. Within the Backend, navigate to “Interaction Modes”. Here, you’ll find an overview of the currently available default modes. To create a new interaction mode, simply click the “Create” button located in the top-right corner. 

//Can't access the Backend?//

Please reach out to your IT administrator or contact our support team at [[helpdesk@pathomation.com]], or submit a ticket via [[https://helpdesk.pathomation.com/]]

**2. Customize with Flexibility and Purpose**

Once inside the interaction mode editor, you can:

  * Name and describe your custom interaction mode,

  * Define accessibility options,

  * Specify whether the consensus score should be included.

A particularly powerful feature is the **Case Collection Behavior**. This allows you to shape the interaction to match your specific training goals and user experience.

** 3. Example Training Session: Scoring, Annotations & Live Mode with Consensus Comparison**

This example outlines how to set up an interactive training session designed by the administrator to enhance diagnostic reasoning and user engagement. In this session, Users are tasked with classifying and diagnosing virtual slides. To support this learning process, the administrator enables a scoring form for structured input, annotations to allow Users to visually justify their decisions, and a live overtake mode for real-time guidance and discussion.

The goal of the administrator is to create an environment where Users can actively explain and reflect on their diagnostic choices. During or after the session, Users are encouraged to compare their scores and annotations with the expert consensus provided by pathologists, promoting self-assessment and deeper insight into diagnostic standards.




__1. Enable Key Features__

In your newly created interaction mode, enable the following:

   * Scoring form – for classification and/or diagnosis input

   * Annotations – to allow Users to visually support their decisions

   * Consensus score display – to compare with pathologist scores

   * Live mode overtake (optional) – for real-time administrator guidance


__2. Link a Case Collection__

Choose or create a relevant case collection containing the slides Users will review during the training session.

__3. Configure or use an existing Scoring Form__

Set up your form with clearly labeled fields (e.g., “Classification Type”) and define whether they are required.

__4. Enable and Guide Annotations__

Allow Users to:

  * Draw regions of interest on the slide

  * Add text explanations to support their scoring decisions

__5. Activate Live Mode Overtake__ 

  * Monitor and interact with Users in real time

  * Ask clarifying questions or provide feedback during the session

__6. Save and Publish__
Save your configuration by clicking on the "Save" button below, and assign the created interaction mode to your intended User group within the training session. You can do this by opening the project page that your training session belongs to. From there, go to the edit page and enable the custom interaction mode so it becomes available in the list of interaction modes your participants can use.
