Week 2 - Group 3 Discussion

Hi Everyone! See my link for Building Happy and Fulfilled Teams: Strategies for New Managers.

• 3 Changes Made:
  • Introduction: I reworked the introduction paragraph in the training to make it more engaging and motivating for learners.
    • I also modified it so list the learning objectives and bold the keywords.
    • I'm not a fan of reading paragraphs in training myself, so I like to modify these when I can so it doesn't feel like such a burden during learning.
  • AI Audio: In the first lesson, I added AI audio to welcome the learner to the topic of Team Happiness.
    • I thought it was nice to take the paragraph introduction and turn it into something interactive for the learner.
    • I also changed the language to make it straightforward and shorter.
  • Accordion Photos: I added AI-generated photos to the accordion under "What Drives Happiness at Work."
    • I feel that accordions can fall flat if it's just text, so adding the photos helps to visualize what the message is saying as well. 
• Most Valuable AI Feature: Part of the main selling point to add the Articulate AI features to our company group was the instant convert option.
  • Time Saver: This saves so much time if you're working on something and decide it's not the way you'd like it.
    • Instant convert can be done in less than 30 seconds compared to having to manually copy and paste or retype learning into a different format.
  • Overall: This is a game-changer for my own workflow because I find myself using the same interaction multiple times, but I can easily convert to different options to figure out which is right for the content and learner at the specific time.
• Challenges:
  • Text Colors: I tried to use the feature where you tell AI to bold certain words and then turn them into a specific color, but I didn't have the color code on hand.
    • So I just tried using "light blue" and it didn't work.
    • I also tried saying "Make the bold headings the color of the theme" and it wasn't able to do that either.
    • I learned that you have to be specific then for which color you want it to be.
  • Storyline: When I was doing the exercises from last week, Storyline would not let me sync the audio on the slide.
    • The video showed audio tied to the slide already, and you ask AI to sync them, but there wasn't an audio to sync.
    • I then made an audio file using the content on the slides, and then tried to sync them, but then it said I couldn't. Not sure what happened there.
