Using Interactive Dials in E-Learning #210: Challenge | Recap

Interactive dials are a great way to simulate real-world objects and tasks in your e-learning courses.

Dials are similar to sliders, but where sliders move along a straight path, dials move in an arc or a circular path. Dials also use less space than sliders, so learners can quickly scroll through large amounts of data.

Dials and knobs can be used to:

  • Explore cause-and-effect relationships
  • Scroll through a lot data quickly
  • Navigate menu items or options

Challenge of the Week

This week, your challenge is to share a new slider interaction. If you’re brand new to Storyline, try reworking one of the dial templates in the downloads section.

New Entries Only!

For this week’s challenge, we’re asking you only share new examples. You're welcome to rework an earlier example you’ve shared or come up with something entirely different.
