It’s simple and works everywhere.\n\n=== Before you start ===\n\n* Decide your module title\n* Decide your lesson titles\n* Prepare a short description\n\n=== Recommended naming conventions ===\n\n* '''Modules''': SELF/Curriculum Name/<code>Module Name</code>\n* '''Quizzes''': SELF/Curriculum Name/<code>Module Name/</code><code>Quiz Name</code>\n\n----\n\n== Example quiz (drag & drop) ==\n\n<quiz display=simple shuffle>\n{Question\n| type = \"{}\"\n| text = Below are materials and instruments commonly used during surgical procedures. Drag each item into the correct stage of IO access in which it is typically used.\n}\n\nPreparation and Site Selection -> Site marking pen, anatomical landmarks, gloves\nAseptic Skin Preparation -> Antiseptic solution, sterile drape, gauze\nInsertion and Access Establishment -> IO needle, drill or driver, stylet\nConnection and Securing -> Extension set, connector, securing tape\nInfusion and Monitoring -> IV tubing, infusion fluids, monitoring equipment\n\n</quiz>\n\n----\n\n== Cloning templates ==\n\n=== Curriculum page ===\n\n# Open the [[SELF Tiger Team/Curriculum Template|curriculum template]]\n# Click '''Edit source''' → '''Copy all'''\n# Create a new page: <code>Curriculum Name</code>\n# Click '''Create''' (or '''Edit source''') → Paste and save\n\n=== Module page ===\n\n# Open the [[Preload:SELF skill page|module template]]\n# Click '''Edit source''' → '''Copy all'''\n# Create a new page: <code>Your Module Name – Organization</code>\n# Click '''Create''' (or '''Edit source''') → Paste and save\n# Replace bracketed placeholders like <code>[MODULE NAME]</code>\n\nOptional metadata:\n\n<pre>\n[[Part of::Curriculum Name]]\n[[Type::Skill Name]]\n[[Skill phase::Module Section]]\n[[Has order::1]]\n</pre>\n\n----\n\n=== Multiple choice quizzes ===\n\n# Open [[Preload:SELF MCQQuiz|the MCQ template]]\n# Click '''Edit source''' → Copy all\n# Create a quiz page: <code>Quiz Name – Module – Organization</code>\n# Paste, save, and customize\n\nExample question formatting:\n\n<pre>\n{Question 1: Which option is option C?\n| type = \"()\"}\n-Option A\n-Option B\n+Option C\n-Option D\n</pre>\n\nOptional:\n\n<pre>\n[[Part of::Your Module Name – Organization]]\n[[Type::Assessment]]\n</pre>\n\n----\n\n=== Fill-in-the-blank questions (Type: text) ===\n\nUse <code>\n| type = \"text\"</code> for open-answer fill-in-the-blank questions.\n\n; Simple exact-match answer\n<pre>{Question: What is the sterile field distance in cm?\n| type = \"text\"\n| answer = 2\n}</pre>\n\n; Case-insensitive or multiple acceptable answers\n<pre>\n{Question: Name the bone used for landmarking IO access in adults.\n| type = \"text\"\n| answer = proximal tibia; tibia; tibial tuberosity\n}\n</pre>\n\n; Regex-based match (variations, spacing, capitalization)\n<pre>\n{Question: What is the first step in aseptic technique?\n| type = \"text\"\n| regex = ^[Hh]and(\n| -)washing$\n}\n</pre>\n\n; Fill-in-the-blank style sentence\n<pre>\n{Question: Complete the sentence: \"The ____ is inserted before securing the IO needle.\"\n| type = \"text\"\n| answer = stylet\n}\n</pre>\n\nYou can mix these question types inside the same <code>&lt;quiz&gt;...&lt;/quiz&gt;</code> block.\n\n----\n\n== Add pages to module navigation ==\n\nOn your module page, use simple manual menus under headings:\n\n<pre>* [[Module Name|Module Title]]\n\n* [[Quiz Name|Quiz Title]]</pre>\n\n----\n\n== Final pre-publication checklist ==\n\n* Page titles are consistent and correct\n* Lessons and quizzes are linked on the module page\n* Images and videos display properly\n* Page data (description, keywords) are filled in\n* Semantic metadata (if used) is correctly applied\n\n----\n\n== Content and layout repository ==\n\nThis page contains '''preloaded content''' to guide you. You may:\n\n* Keep and customize it\n* Replace it completely\n* Use it as a reference while creating your own content\n\nImportant source edits:\n\n# Replace the banner at the top (from source)\n# Edit the \"Part of\" link to reflect your parent module\n# If not needed, remove the \"weeks required\" line\n\n----\n\n== Content display examples ==\n\n=== Images ===\n\n[[File:FCEMT baby and placenta.jpg|thumb|Childbirth simulator]]\n\nUse the visual editor or [[Help:Images]] for help uploading/placing images.\n\n----\n\n=== Quizzes ===\n\nYou can generate quizzes using this preload tool:\n\n{{Create|preload=Medical quiz}}\n\n----\n\n=== Equipment lists ===\n\nCreate equipment pages with this preload button:\n\n{{Create|preload=Medical equipment}}\n\n----\n\n=== Image galleries ===\n\n<gallery>\nFile:Airway closed in an unconscious patient because the head inflexed forward.jpg\n| 1. Step-by-step example\nFile:FCEMT CPAP equipment.jpg\n| 2. CPAP setup\nFile:Airway.jpg\n| 3. Alternate airway example\n</gallery>\n\n----\n\n=== Links to other material ===\n\nNot all of the content you want to display necessarily fits into the Appropedia format easily, or is best in a single page. You can add many different kinds of links to other content including:\n\n* Internal links to other Appropedia content (try adding <nowiki>[[double square brackets]]</nowiki> to add an internal link to your or other content): [[CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) Administration]]\n* Links to any content on an outside website (using [single square brackets]): [https://content.nremt.org/static/documents/skills/E204_NREMT.pdf Example] to integrate content from any other website\n* The special case of links to Wikipedia content for expanded definitions: [[Wikipedia:Continuous positive airway pressure]].\n* And links timestamps in the video: [[Preload:GSTC medical skill#0:04|Click this example]].\n\n[[Help:Editing#Wikitext cheatsheet|Check this cheatsheet with the most useful wikitext markup]].\n\n== Editing the sidebars ==\n\n[[File:GSTC editing a template.gif|thumb|You can edit sidebar templates using the visual editor (click image).]]\n\nThe sidebars are generated and displayed from the source code for the page. They are key places where things like the list of subskills, the self-assessment tasks, equipment lists and navigation help are organized in a consistent way from page to page.\n\nBecause of the way they are constructed, the sidebars require editing with the \"Edit Source\" option, and don't always handle in-line links to other pages as intuitively as the main body content - there are examples in this preload of how to do common kinds of link in those sections that you can see when you look at this page with the \"Edit Source\" option, but not every kind of link will work.\n\nIf the sidebar structures are too restrictive for how you want to handle self-assessment or equipment lists, that content can always be included in the main body. This content is often some of the last that you will edit when you complete the page.\n----\n\n== How to add a new entry to the SELF Tissue Database in Appropedia ==\n\n=== Overview of the workflow ===\n\n# Review simulator instructions\n# Identify tissues and materials\n# Create or update tissue pages\n# Create or update material pages\n# Link materials to tissues\n# Verify search and cross-links\n\n=== Key URL patterns ===\n\n{\n| class = \"wikitable\"\n! Entry type\n! URL pattern\n| -\n| Tissues\n| <code>/TissueDB/Tissues/[TISSUE NAME]</code>\n| -\n| Materials\n| <code>/TissueDB/Materials/[MATERIAL NAME]</code>\n| } = == Step 1: Review simulator instructions ===\n\nRead the simulator build instructions carefully from start to finish. List every tissue being simulated and every material used. Be literal and document exactly what is described.\n\n=== Step 2: Check existing entries ===\n\nSearch Appropedia for each tissue and material name to determine whether pages already exist.\n\n=== Step 3: Create or update a tissue page ===\n\nCreate a new tissue page only if the tissue does not already exist. Use the standard tissue page structure and include a materials table linking to material pages.\n\n=== Step 4: Create or update material pages ===\n\nCreate a material page if the material does not already exist. Describe the material, its sourcing, and what tissue properties it helps simulate.\n\n=== Step 5: Link materials to tissues ===\n\nAdd a row to the tissue’s materials table and link to the canonical material page. Link to the simulator page (or external source) in the Simulator column.\n\n=== Step 6: Final checks ===\n\n* Confirm material links are correct\n* Confirm tissue appears on the material page\n* Test search by tissue and by material\n\n=== Guiding principle ===\n\nTissues describe anatomy. Materials describe physical substitutes. Tables create the link between them.\n\n----\n\n== Team members and contact guide ==\n\n{| class = \"wikitable\"\n! Name\n! Role\n! Contact for\n!
