Notecard Interactions in E-Learning #149
Notecard Interactions in E-Learning #149: Challenge | Recap
Notecard interactions are a simple click-and-reveal activity that lets learners explore virtually any type of content in a freeform way by clicking notes on the slide. You can use notecard-style interactions to:
- Chunk related information in tabs interactions
- Launch courses using creative menu navigation
- Rapidly prototype or wireframe a course
- Display interactive audio notes or soundboards
- Summarize instructional design tips
- Present a list of dos and don’ts
Challenge of the Week
This week, your challenge is to share an example that demonstrates how notecard interactions can be used in e-learning.
NOTE: Your entry can be anything from a rough concept to a polished example. The challenges are open to everyone, regardless of experience or skill level. If you need technical or creative help with your project, please ask in our forums and reference the challenge number you’re working on.

Thanks, Dianne! I like to mess around with the timeline to take advantage of entrance and exit animations. What I did was create 2 copies of each flash card and stacked them in order to create two sets of flashcards on the timeline. I then staggered them, so that when the first flash card exited the timeline (fly out - to top), the second version of that flash card entered (fly in - from top). Since the animations were set to .25 seconds, it all happens so quickly it looks like the card just slides out of the deck and returns to the deck at the bottom of the stack. Hopefully that makes sense. Then I just set the timeline to pause after each exit/entrance animation and created hotspots for the user to resume the timeline. Then I created a trigger to jump to the same slide at the end of the ... Expand
Awesome job Brandon, as everyone already stated :) One of our instructional designers saw this and wanted a "template" for future use so I got to work recreating what you posted, a bit different. I must say that doing the animation for the card shuffle took some time. but if anyone is interested here is the way I accomplished it. http://aws-website-romanstotland-pffde.s3-website-us-east-1.amazonaws.com/articulate/flashcards/story.html Searching the forums just showed that many were interested in doing the same thing but not very successfully.

Here is the story file as well in case anyone wants to poke around. It has s... Expand
