The DDx course creation guide was developed to walk instructors step-by-step through setting up their course within the platform. Its purpose is to streamline the process of adding cases, organizing assignments, and aligning DDx activities with course objectives. By following this guide, instructors can save time, ensure consistency across courses, and create a clear, structured learning experience for students.

Once you've created your course, check out our step-by-step guide for creating assignments to learn how assign cases. But first, follow these steps to get started with DDx:
