2015 Articulate Guru Contest: 3-Step Game Plan

Jun 12, 2015

2015 Articulate Guru Contest

I know you're psyched about this year's Guru Contest. I know you have a lot of cool ideas to share. But I also know you're worrying that you don't have that one, single, killer project you'd like to submit. That's cool. Here's how you can work with content you already have.

Step 1: Pull together a handful of your favorite interactions

Two years ago, Mike Enders was thinking the same thing. Mike was an active participant in the Storyline beta and built some really schweet, single-slide interactions. By the time the Guru Contest was announced, Mike didn't have time to build out his killer course.

So he corralled his single-slide interactions into one Storyline project. He created an engaging navigation screen and linked to each of his projects.

He earned a Bronze award for his creative work. His approach could work for a lot of users who have interesting demos without a home base course.

Step 2: Remix your interactions to create a sense of unity

Next, you'll want to unify the projects. This is where Trina's recent article on remixing various templates comes in.

Trina shares some super helpful tips and tricks for unifying different a group of unrelated interactions. This is the secret sauce you're looking for!
