Ideas for showing 'filling out a form'

Susan, this is a question I have been wondering. I hope experts like Bruce or Phil can open sun rays on this issue.

Not sure I am an expert or ever will be, I built this a while back

http://www.test.elearninglaboratory.co.uk/DT/story.html

There is a section in there on how to complete a form, the navigation is a bit dodgy on this course (I keep getting lost) and there is no audio as it was meant to be used in a clinical area.

You could use a google form inserted as a web object, this way you can also collect the data.

Another solution is to build the form in Storyline and then publish and screen record yourself completing it.

Nice sample, Phil... You have some really great things going on there. The interactive document w/markers and rollovers is a great example of form-based training.

Susan, for some more ideas, you could check out the interactive document examples on this site. Nearly every example could be created in Storyline... Phil demonstrated a few in his example.

Nice project, Phil!

Thanks David, its an old project, I would do the navigation differently now, Thanks

Hi Phil, David & Carla

Thanks for replying. Really useful examples.

Were all parts built in Storyline? I know the hotspots are in Engage.

Thanks

Sue

Don't have storyline yet so I will need to use presenter/engage etc.

Hi Susan, it was all done i Storyline, but things like the labelled diagrams can be easily done in Studio, you could also use quizmaker to build some of the other interactions

Phil, you had some really nice things going on in there. I really like how you used hover states and that thermometer gauge was super cool!

Thanks Natalia, the thermometer is just smoke and mirrors, a bit of masking and state changes

Any chance we could bribe you to get a quick screenr on how you did it?

I will get one done!  May take couple of days

Did David Anderson ask you to ask me?  :-)

No but he may have rubbed off on me a little...

LOL

You may laugh but I now need to psyche myself up again

Hey, no false modesty here... Your Screenrs rock. And the more you do, the fewer I have to record

So, Phil, I'm just wondering, how did you get the zoom to occur on the click of an image?  Was the user taken back to the initial state of the slide when they pushed "Next"?

My problem is, I made this entirely too big training, and now we're assessing what has changed, and it appears that in the last five months, all of our paperwork got updated.  I originally had the document with markers on each section of how to fill it out, but now the document is just too big to fit on the sheet.  So, I'm trying to think of a new/better way to present the information.  I wish the zoom function worked a little better (i.e., the user could zoom out when they want to), then I would just have hotspots to zoom and info inside of those zooms.

I'm just over all of these markers on the page, they're pretty ugly, all things considered lol.

Hi there

I'm new to e-learning and am currently working on my second project. I found this thread as I too have a project to create which shows the filling in of a form. I really like the example shown in http://www.test.elearninglaboratory.co.uk/DT/story.html but I cannot work out how to create the click to zoom function - could you give me some guidance? I would really appreciate it! I've had no formal training so I'm trying to teach myself as I go along. Thanks!

It is all done with smoke and mirrors here is the file

Thanks Phil - that's really useful. Now got Storyline too.

Many thanks Phil, really appreciate your help

I am a little behind - but wanted to thank you for sharing.  I've got some new ideas now!
