Visual Practice Workflow
Choose how you want to practice
Brief digital annotation preserves deliberate visual practice while making it feasible for busy learners. Pick a mode that fits the time you have.
Quick Digital Annotation
2–5 minTap-to-color, label, circle, arrow, and drag-label tools on a digital image. Designed for deliberate visual practice in short, repeatable sessions.
Best for: Busy learners who want frequent, low-friction reps.
Start →Printable Coloring Sheet
10–20 minDownload a printable sheet, color and annotate on paper, then upload the result as a photo, scan, PDF, or digital annotation for review.
Best for: Deep practice sessions and small-group teaching.
Start →Pattern Recognition Only
3–6 minSkip the annotation and go straight to stain/modality, compartment, active vs chronic, pattern, visual clue, and clinical correlation prompts.
Best for: Review and recall before rounds, boards, or sign-out.
Start →Board-Style Vignette
5–10 minClinical vignette plus image. Choose the best diagnosis, explain the visual evidence, and correlate with labs and presentation.
Best for: Board prep and clinical reasoning practice.
Start →Annotation → pattern recognition
Every annotation session, digital or printable, is followed by the same structured pattern-recognition prompts:
- Choose stain / modality (LM, IF, EM, special stain).
- Localize the lesion to a compartment (glomerular, vascular, tubulointerstitial, mixed).
- Classify as active, chronic, or mixed.
- Name the pattern.
- Identify the key visual clue that supports the pattern.
- Correlate with the clinical scenario.
AI-supported, educator-reviewed feedback
Learner markings are compared to expert reference regions. The platform highlights missed structures, mislabeled compartments, and incorrect pattern recognition, and returns formative feedback.
AI feedback is formative. Formal assessment is reviewed by faculty before it counts toward learner evaluation.
What we measure
- Time to completion
- Completion and drop-off rate
- Digital vs printable preference
- Structure recognition
- Compartment localization
- Pattern accuracy
- Stain awareness
- Confidence calibration
- Uploaded coloring / annotation rubric score
Analytics roll up into the learner dashboard and educator review tools.
Future scalability
This visual learning framework may later be adapted to other histopathology domains such as blood smears, marrow pathology, tumor pathology, or dermatopathology.
Educational use only. AI-generated feedback is formative and must be reviewed by an educator when used for formal learner assessment. Not intended for clinical diagnosis or patient care decisions.
