Managing Selections & Blocks

Adding a new selection to the list

From a stage, click 'Manage Selections'.
Click ‘Add New Selection’ to create one or more blocks.

Adding a block to a “Singular” selection

If the parent stage that the selection is created under is set to ‘Singular’, only one block may be added to the selection.
After clicking the ‘Add New Selection’ button, you can then specify the desired ‘Course’, ‘Length’, and ‘Rotation’ for the block, then click the ‘Finish’ button to save the block to the selection. The ‘Length’ field requires a value for ‘Course’, and ‘Rotation’ requires a value for ‘Length’.
This information is being pulled from the rotations built for a course in Clinical Experiences > Rotation Schedule. If a course is in a curriculum period with no configured blocks, or if a course has no rotations created, you won't have information to pick from for the selection.

Adding blocks to a “Sequential” selection

If the parent stage that the selection is created under is set to ‘Sequential’, multiple blocks may be added to the selection to create a sequential ordering, or “stream”. If you have not created any blocks in a sequential selection, you will see a form for defining the ‘Course’, ‘Length’, and ‘Rotation’ of the first block, as well as a toggle for setting the block to an active or inactive state. The ‘Length’ field requires a value for ‘Course’, and ‘Rotation’ requires a value for ‘Length’. Click the ‘Confirm’ button to finalize the current block.
After finalizing the first block in your sequential selection, you have the option to ‘Cancel’, which will discard the selection currently being defined, ‘Add New Block’ to define and add another block to the sequence, and ‘Finish’, which will save the current sequential selection, including all of its contained blocks. You also have the option to toggle the active/inactive state on any existing blocks, or open a specific block to make changes, simply by clicking its ‘Edit’ button. In the example below, Block 1 is set to a course with code “CRS” and a rotation of “ROT”.

Viewing your list of selections

After clicking on the ‘Manage Selections’ button for a specific stage’s card, you will be shown a focused view for that stage. This view contains a ‘Stages’ link below the selected lottery card, to navigate back to the list of all the stages for the lottery you are working within. The card for the currently selected stage appears below that ‘Stages’ link, followed by an overview of all its selections. Above the selections overview there is an ‘Add New Selection’ button for creating new selections.

In this version of the application, the selections overview section consists of a simplified list of each selection, with associated buttons to ‘Edit’ or ‘Delete’ each individual selection. In future versions of the application, this simplified list will be replaced with a scheduling overview UI similar to a rotation scheduler.
