Adding a glossary to Rise

I can't find a way to add a glossary to Rise. We don't use Storyline, as we're Mac users and have found Storyline a World of Pain... :-)

Any tips on how we might do it in Rise, please?

Cheers, Ben.

    Hi Ben,

    Unfortunately there isn't a way to add a glossary at a course level.

    What we do is to create a Lesson called Glossary and then use Accordion blocks to create the terms and definitions.

    Clumsy? Yes!

      I've created a glossary. Now I'm scratching my head as to where we put it. Our courses are restricted navigation, as learners have to follow a prescribed path and answer a quiz etc.

      Any suggestions on the best way to integrate a glossary lesson without it getting in the way, please?

        Ben, could you include it in an introductory lesson that describes how to get through the course successfully, and use button blocks in your lessons to allow learners to easily jump back to the intro lesson with the glossary when needed? If it's the first lesson, learners will be able to revisit it with restricted navigation.

    Thanks Karl. We'll do the same.

    Articulate support - please add a request for a Glossary feature in Rise. Thanks.

    I made a simple glossary using an image with the Labelled Graphic block. It might work if you don't have too many words.
