Adaptive Learning based on roles
Hi Carsten!
Hope I have got this right, but here would be my approach if I understand you...
1) create a welcome page where they choose their role. This may be buttons, slider, radio buttons etc. Their choice would set a variable (eg click button one, set JobRole = manager)
2) on each slide, EITHER have the content (text boxes / images) have multiple states. A trigger at the start of the timeline to set state of text box A to state 'manager' if JobRole = manager
So basically it changes the info displayed based on their choice
3) It may be easier to do the above with layers rather than individual states for each element on screen. eg When timeline starts, show layer 'manager' if JobRole = manager
4) Depending on your content, it should be possible to skip whole slides for certain employees. So maybe after slide 4, a line manager would click to access slide 5, which had content on it that was more in depth. A regular employee may not need to see this info, so them clicking on the NEXT button on slide 4 would skip them all the way to slide 6.
Again, you can use the variables from the start of the course to do this. eg When user clicks button 1, AND JobRole= manager, jump to slide 5. When user clicks on button 1 AND JobRole = employee, jump to slide 6
So combine all of the above, and you can probably have mostly linear course, but each slide has more content via states, layers, or small offshoots to bonus slides before rejoining the main trunk again
Hope that helps and I've understood the issue ok!
