CASUS Help

Filter function
With the help of the filter function you can search for cases based on specific criteria, which will then be listed on the left. You can filter based on the following criteria: title, author's name, content domain. You can determine whether you would like to sort the cases by name or ID. You can always combine different filter possibilities. In order to start, click on “filter”.

Please note that the information entered by the case author (metadata) is decisive for the filter function.

Choosing cases
Using the arrows, you can integrate select cases (on the right) into your own course or remove them from your course. The list on the left lets you enter a whole list of cases simultaneously. You can mark more than one item at a time. As soon as you assign a case to your course, it will be added to the case list. The order in this list will determine the order in which it is displayed in player mode.

Changing the order of the cases
You can change the order of the cases by marking a case and moving it up or down by clicking on the appropriate arrow. The marked case will then move one line.

Extra information about a case
If you wish to know more about a case, select the case from the list on the left and click on “details”: the case title, authors' names, a case description (provided by the authors) and the date when the case was last changed will be shown.
