Text entry blank in Rise
I'm developing some material and the project owner has asked about the feasibility of allowing end users to input text which could be reported back to our LMS. We'd then view the entered text and use the information to direct future training efforts. I had to tell the owner this isn't possible now but that I'd ask if something like this was forthcoming. Are there any plans for adding text entry as a block/interaction/quiz option?
If you insert a 360 open text question slide for feedback or space for the learner, will it save in Rise the next time a learner opens the file? I want to use Rise for an interactive workbook; but if I can't save my entries it will not function.
Hi Kelly,
Right now, there isn’t a way to do this. It looks like there is already a feature request out for this one, so we’ll make sure your voice is added.
This might work for you; https://community.articulate.com/discussions/rise-360/learning-journal-in-rise
Thank you. Will check it out - looks promising.

Hi Crystal, are we able to get an update on this. Is this something that has been added to the development roadmap? It's something a lot of people have been asking for over the last couple of year. It would be great to actually hear from the product manager and let people know if this feature is going to be included in a release anytime soon.
When we send in feature requests it does feel a bit like sending an email into the void.
We have worked around this issue using a Storyline block, but this comes with it's own pitfals such as the large play button to activate when viewed on mobile and it not being a truly responsive experiece.
I think Articulate need to be a bit more transparent with the development of new features. We have had situations where significant money has been invested in building workarounds only to see the feature being released (seemingly out of the blue) in the next month or two. That leaves a bitter taste. With more transparency we can make better decisions for our clients.
Thanks
Hi, Sam. Thanks for sharing that context. We don't want you to work harder than you have to. We are looking at better ways to keep you informed of what features are planned for development.
Right now, a survey style interaction isn't on our immediate roadmap. I hope that helps you plan your content.
Hi Justin,
We're always looking at new quiz question types, and I appreciate you letting us know that a text entry question is important for your courses. It sounds like you're looking for a free response question with no correct answer, is that correct?
I'm happy to pass along this idea for you!
Hello Alyssa! Do you know if this has been addressed yet? The ability to create survey type questions in Rise would be a huge help, especially free response text.
Hello,
Has this been implemented at all since this post? I am looking to do the same thing with no correct answer :)
+1 on this! Survey functionality with free text response so desperately needed. Or any way to capture free-text responses. Especially where organisations don't allow access to external sites.
Is there a workaround? I need learners to be able to enter reflection text - no correct or incorrect answers - and I don't care if it reports back to the LMS. Is there a way to get rid of the X that appears in Rise "Fill-in-the-blank"? That would also help solve my issue. Thanks!
For anybody interested, I have developed a SCORM 1.2 Storyline block that can be used to collect input from a user on an LMS. The block can also be configured as a mandatory completion.
It is fairly simple to configure and publish to Review 360 for inclusion in your Rise 360 project.
There are a couple of configuration options:
id: Define the ID of the activity, e.g a question text. This is used for the cmi.interactions.id and can be used to identify the question/response in the LMS report
charactercount: How many characters the user should enter before the Submit button is enabled.
Unfortunately with it being a Storyline block, we cannot overcome the "Play button" requirement for mobile devices.
We made the decision to make the activity large, so that when it is scaled it is still legible on mobile devices.
Please see the following Peek video for a demonstration: https://360.articulate.com/review/content/22c4982c-8ee5-4d43-b418-e548d124f427/review
Whoa, sweet. Thank you! I will check it out.You are a life saver!
ps. [assume the video was voice-less - I couldn't get any sound!
Hello! I'm interested in creating something similar. Could you please share the Javascript in the trigger?
Hi Janice, the JavaScript is all within the Storyline file that is available for download via my post
Hi Annabelle,
We require to capture results from learner responses using text entry questions. Can this be done in Rise?
Thanks,
Matt
Hi Lionel,
A Storyline quiz in Rise can be used for tracking purposes, including the score, but it won't send individual quiz question data to your LMS.
Rise does have a Fill in the Blank question type, but it sounds like that won't be enough space for your learners to type? I do know a few other folks have asked for a "Survey block" where learners could enter in a larger amount of text. If that would fit your needs I can let our team know that there is another vote for it!
Any update on this feature?
