Hello. I was hoping that I could get some inspiration. We build courses on how to use software tools. I wanted a really clean, professional, but fun game that would incorporate the software as opposed to just traditional questions. Any ideas?
You may also want to look in the Building Better Courses forum, as that side tends to have more examples, ideas, and a focus on design/how to questions vs. the Product forums where more questions are asked about technical or support issues.
Hi Sandy, I just threw something together earlier today that I hope gives you a few ideas. I create content for software training, and it can get a little dry - so, instead of just doing "E-presenting", I'm going to do a game for an upcoming project. Here's the demo: https://goo.gl/uhSllh
There are a lot of brain games out there, and this does something similar - trains the user to do something in a certain order. This is a quick version, but tell me what you think! If you'd like I can also send you the source file.
This is great. The only problem is that not everything we do have a specific work flow, but I think I can leverage something like this. Yes, please send me the source file. Thanks.
I'm curious to know how you leveraged Michael's demo? I have the same issue. I create a lot of software demos, but I'm having a hard time making them interesting.
Michael,
How did you incorporate your game with software training?
Hi Tonya! Hopefully the users here are subscribed and will reach back out to you.
Our Building Better Courses forum may be better fitted for this type of question. As an example, I wanted to share this thread where users were discussing how to present a 'boring' topic to the users and there are many ideas/courses shared that may help you as well.
