Microscope for instructors
Review the CBC, count 100 white cells from photographs, grade morphology and verify the report.
Class links
The worklist About 20 to 30 minutes
- The Microscope worklist
The learner picks a flagged CBC and works it guided or independently. Each attempt draws its own case and photographs, so learners do different cases.
Study a pattern About 10 minutes
Teaching slides with photographs and a CBC. Nothing is scored.
Assignment text
Open the Microscope worklist and complete one differential in independent mode. When the Verification sheet appears, choose Print record and hand in the printed record.
What learners practice
- Review the CBC and its analyzer flags.
- Identify 100 white cells from photographs and build the differential.
- Grade WBC morphology, review the red cells and estimate the platelets.
- Correct the white count for nucleated red cells.
- Verify the report.
Read first
What the record shows
- The case accession and the mode
- The learner's call on each cell beside the reference, and the finished differential
- The corrected white count when nucleated red cells were counted
- The morphology grades, the red cell review, the platelet estimate and the verified report
The record stays with the learner until they hand it in.
How it's scored
- Scored in parts, with no single total: correct cell calls out of the total, differential classes within range, findings, the red cell review, the platelet estimate and the corrected white count.
- Guided scores use each cell's first call.
Accessibility
- Every control can be reached with Tab and used with Enter or Space.
- Every counter key also has a keyboard key. Shortcuts in the lab bar lists them.
- Identifying cells from photographs is a visual task. During the count, image descriptions give the cell number without its classification.
- Screen changes use short animations and become instant when the device is set to reduce motion.
