Rise 360: Interactive Group Activity Guide
Rise 360 can create so much more than traditional e-learning courses. Take, for example, our Training Trailblazers activity at the 2023 Articulate User Conference. It was a collaborative, in-person experience where teams of e-learning professionals worked together to solve a tricky training request. And for it to go smoothly, those teams needed quick access to project steps, note-taking tools, and other resources.
That’s where a Rise 360 microlearning project came in to help.
Using key features from this app, we created a flexible, interactive guide to assist with each stage of the activity:
- Stepped navigation allowed it to function as presenter slides for the activity kickoff and step-by-step instructions for participants to follow independently afterward.
- A Storyline block made it simple to randomly assign a project topic for each group.
- Accordion blocks and flashcard grids allowed us to tuck information away until people needed it.
- Image blocks made it easy to share links via QR codes generated in another tool. That made including other sites in the activity—such as using Typeform to collect team notes and ideas—as simple as scanning the code with a phone.
The guide had all the information participants needed in one spot. And that allowed us to streamline the activity processes and use everyone’s time efficiently.

- Clicking on the "click here" link to send an editable copy takes me to (redirects the link) my "manage" area in Rise. I have not been successful it getting it to make a copy.
- Thanks for sharing this example! I'm curious -- at the end it says that you'll review the team journals and use some of the contents to create something cool for the broader E-Learning Heroes community. Did something come of that?
- Hi Lina. Your timing is perfect, as we just published the first E-Learning Heroes content based on the team journals: the article 10 Tips for Coping With Vague E-Learning Project Requests.
The tip ideas in this article came as participant suggestions during the Training Trailblazers activity. On our side, we curated the suggestions and then wove in additional advice to build out that community-created content even more. Here's a link to the article: https://community.articulate.com/articles/10-tips-for-coping-with-vague-e-learning-project-requests
- Thanks Bianca!
