Using Rise as a web object in Storyline

Sep 05, 2019

I'm currently developing a course using a combination of both Rise and Storyline (Rise courses inserted as web objects). One of my slides is a web object of the intro page of a Rise course with I have removed the top 'Start Course' button in favour of using the in-build 'Next' button in the Storyline Player. Whilst testing I have noticed that although I removed the button on that course and inserted the web object link, if I create a new course in Rise with the start button, it automatically defaults ALL Rise courses to include the 'start course' - I would have expected that the removal / change of labels in Rise would be course specific rather than default for all courses? (Query 1).

If this is expected behaviour, does anyone know whether amendments to the source object for web objects (i.e. the Rise course) would automatically change the slide in Storyline once published to LMS or when you publish to LMS, it it publishes the web object as it stands at that moment in time? (Hoping that all made sense to someone??)

Hi Steven!

When you edit text labels, the changes affect all your Rise 360 courses that use the same label set. For example, adding the START label to one course will automatically add the same label all courses using the built-in English label set.

If you want to remove the START label from only one course, you'll want to create a new label set for that course. 

Regarding your second question, did you use the Rise 360 Share link as the web object URL? If so, any changes you make in Rise 360 will automatically appear in the Storyline web object. 

Can you tell me more about why you want to display each page of your Rise 360 course on a separate Storyline 360 slide?

Hi Alyssa,

Many thanks for your response (and apologies for the delayed reply). 

I'd never thought to create a new label set  for a specific course which is really useful - I will give that a go.

I had originally intended to create my course using Rise however upon testing, my LMS didnt report on the elements I wanted (I wanted to report on the branching route taken by learners in Rise through the use of buttons). I then tried a combination of short Rise courses as  web-objects with branching slides in Storyline however I found that learners were using the player 'Next' buttons rather than interacting with the Rise web object and therefore skipping through all the content (although I could turn this off, there is no trigger in either Storyline or Rise that interact with each other to jump to the next slide)!

As I had already created the course content in Rise, it was quicker and easier to use each lesson individually as a web object (using the Share link) in Articulate rather than create again in Storyline.

 

Thanks again for your response

Regards

Steve
