Make an infection transmission explainer video
Make an infection transmission video by selecting one scenario and pathway from your teaching material. Paste its explanation into AutoScribble, name the audience and identify the connections learners should follow. Review the draft so arrows represent only the relationships described in the source, with any conditions or alternatives preserved rather than implied as universal transmission rules.
Audience: Microbiology educators
Describe each connection before turning it into an arrow.
Follow a specified transmission pathway
Create a 120-second landscape whiteboard lesson for [learner group] using the transmission scenario below. Explain this selected pathway: [pathway]. Use fictional teaching roles and label each source-defined connection in order. Preserve any conditions, uncertainty or alternative routes stated in the material; do not combine alternatives into an inevitable chain. Do not add patient details, outbreak claims, risk percentages or unsupplied prevention instructions. Finish with a question asking learners to explain the selected route and point to [approved follow-on resource] where relevant. [Paste your source material here]
A chain of arrows is easy to draw and easy to overinterpret. Your brief needs to explain what each connection means, which conditions belong to the example and where the explanation stops. A clearly bounded fictional teaching scenario can provide continuity without using real patient information or inventing a claim about a particular outbreak.
Prepare a source-to-connection list
Write each connection in the chosen pathway as a sentence, with the relevant source wording beside it. Identify the people, places or objects as teaching roles rather than real individuals. This list helps you check that a visually convenient shortcut has not replaced an important relationship or added a route the lesson never described.
Keep alternatives out of a single compulsory chain
If your material presents several possible routes, choose one for the main example or use explicitly labelled alternatives. Do not join them into a sequence merely to fill four scenes. Tell viewers which example they are following and preserve conditions from the source, especially where an arrow could otherwise imply that an event must always occur.
Separate explanation from local instructions
End with the pathway question the lesson is intended to answer. If learners also need local prevention procedures, link to the organisation's approved material rather than inventing instructions in the animation. Check the final arrows and labels against the route list, and remove numerical risk claims that were not supplied for this specific teaching purpose.
Illustrative storyboard
A possible scene sequence
A bounded teaching scenario follows the pathway documented in the supplied source.
- Scene 1
Visual
A scenario card introduces fictional roles and the chosen setting.
Narration
This example uses the conditions specified in our teaching source.
- Scene 2
Visual
The first connection appears with a short explanatory label.
Narration
Read the arrow using the relationship stated beside it.
- Scene 3
Visual
The next source-defined connection appears with a condition note.
Narration
This connection belongs to the selected scenario, with these limits.
- Scene 4
Visual
The complete selected route sits beside a retrieval question.
Narration
Explain the pathway without adding routes the source did not describe.

Questions
- Can I combine several transmission routes?
- Use a comparison when that is the learning objective, with alternatives clearly labelled. Do not make independent routes look like mandatory stages in one continuous chain.
- Should I use a real outbreak as the example?
- Use properly sourced, appropriate teaching material and avoid identifiable case details. A fictional scenario can demonstrate the selected relationship without implying a new claim about a real event.
- Can I include local infection-control instructions?
- Keep those instructions tied to the current approved local source and its intended audience. They should not be improvised from a general transmission diagram or added as generic advice.
