Welcome to the Student Overview of Leo, powered by DaVinci Education! The sections below will provide a short introduction to some of the many features that Leo offers.
Top Navigation Bar
Students enrolled in a clinical experience will have the additional menu tab for PET (Patient Encounter Tracking).
The main user interface is based around the Calendar, a central hub for information about events.
- The Calendar opens to today's date and can be organized by: Day, Week, Month, or List views.
- Filters can be applied to the Calendar to manage the information you see. You can also add Personal Events, access More options, learn more at the ? Help and open/close the Related Materials pane.
- Related Materials are organized in the right side panel and can be downloaded all at once, or you can select specific items to download.
- Events are organized by time and place, as well as color coded by Event Type.
For more detailed information about the Calendar, please refer to the Calendar article.
The Courses tab includes a list of the Courses you are enrolled in (past & present). Each course name is also a link that brings you to the Course screen where you can access relevant information such as materials, discussions, the course description, and more.
- Courses can be sorted by:Name, Rotation, From, Until, and number of Events.
- Click the Course Name link to go to the Section Screen for that Course.
For more detailed information, please refer to the Courses article.
Users can search across the curriculum by using a keyword search. To search for parts of a word, be sure to put the term in quotations. For example, searching micro will only return results where that specific word is found. Searching "micro" will return results where that word is found as well as results where "micro" is part of a word (microbiota, e.g.).
A number of built-in advanced filters are also available to help widen or narrow search fields and display options. Clicking on the Advanced Icon toggles the screens between the Advanced Search and Basic Search.
When enabled, Leo's PET tab allows students to manage PET form submissions for clinical courses in which they are enrolled from the top Navigation Bar.
For more information regarding Patient Encounter Tracking see the article on PET.
