Wanted to share my latest project - Acceptable Use Policy for K-12

Aug 13, 2012

I wanted to share a module that I just finished creating for our acceptable use policy for a K-12 public school system.  This module just went live yesterday (8/12) and out of over 8000 users, 300 have completed the module thus far.

To the module, click here.

I used drag and drop scenarios (some borrowed from the templates Articulate provided), and used triggers, slide layers, multiple audio, illustrated characters, and the list goes on. I also added a lot of 'easter eggs' for those who hovered the mouse around many of the objects.

History of the AUP:  We've produced a module for the AUP since 2008, and this is the largest revision we have done to date.  I really wanted to draw users into the module, so I started the module with the "old layout" and then quickly interrupted it with the narration (and our director of technology).  We've had a lot of great feedback from the module and thought this could help others who are looking to do a similar type of learning object/module.

I will be glad to share some of the .story files if you have questions about how I did anything.

Thanks for sharing this one, Laura. You have a lot of great ideas going on here. I found some Easter eggs, but can't help but wonder what I've missed.

The subtle hover changes in internet privacy are a nice touch. And I especially like how you scaled the illustrated characters to create the family graphics.

Well done and thanks so much for sharing!

Thank you.  You would be correct, Clint.

Thanks, David!  I should have kept a list of all the hidden items I placed in it.  I had a secretary go through it during final testing of the project just waving her mouse around the entire time trying to catch them all (I'll call that an unintended feature/behavior).

Hello Laura, thank you for sharing your example of acceptable use eLearning. I was trying to access the course with the link provided in this threat and I am unable. Would you be able to share an updated link? We are looking for good example of acceptable use policies we can rollout using Rise. Thank you so much!
