My 2025

It’s hard to believe how quickly this year flew by...

I didn’t have as much free time as in previous years to build big, complex examples, but I still did my best to join every challenge — even if it meant creating smaller, simpler projects.

One of my favourite discoveries this year was exploring the new features in Rise. Being able to create custom blocks feels like a real game changer. And adding code blocks is a huge bonus. Working with code is something I’d really like to improve next year — right now, there are still ideas I can’t fully bring to life.

Here are a couple of my favourite Rise examples so far.

• The Magic of The Nutcracker
• Check your battery 

This year, I also experimented with using code in my Storyline projects. The results were mixed, but I still managed to make a few things work — and that already feels like progress.😂

For example, I managed to set up sending a completed learning journal by email, as well as moving a selection indicator between different points in tabbs interactions.

Challenges focused on new features were especially valuable for me. I don’t always keep up with updates and can easily miss a new button or option. But when a challenge is built around a new feature — and includes helpful learning resources — it makes a huge difference. That’s how I discovered the merge feature, for example 😀

And of course, a huge thank you to everyone who shares their work in these challenges. Your examples are incredibly inspiring 💛
