Using Scrolling Panels in E-Learning (2020) #273

Scrolling Panels in E-Learning #273: Challenge | Recap

A common design challenge for course designers is finding ways to break down and organize content into small, digestible chunks. Tabs and accordion interactions can do this by grouping related content into meaningful sections. Labeled graphics are another popular click-and-reveal interaction that lets learners pull information by clicking interactive markers.

But sometimes the content still won't easily fit on the slide. When shrinking or chunking content isn't an option, try adding an interactive scrolling panel.

Scrolling panels are a great way to present large images, lengthy text blocks and other graphics that don’t fit well on a slide. And that’s what this week’s challenge is all about!
