A simple way to increase learner engagement in an e-learning course is to use his or her name throughout the learning process. However, this type of capability has been beyond the reach of most e-learning developers. How do I build it so learners enter their names, and then use that info throughout the course? Well, wonder no more! Articulate Storyline makes personalizing a course super easy.

By utilizing a text variable and then referencing that variable, you can quickly, and quite simply, build learner engagement. In the following video, you’ll learn to insert a text entry box, learn about the text variable that it creates, and then see how you can reference that variable throughout your project.
