Changing Speed of Audio in Articulate Storyline?
I'm working on creating some Articulate Storyline projects for a class I teach. Our current videos are MUCH less engaging and interactive and are simply the professor in front of a web camera lectu...
Hi, everyone!
I have some great news to share. We just released another update for Storyline 360. In Update 83, we've included important fixes and new features!
One of the new features we've included:
- Unlock new possibilities for text-to-speech audio. Use speech synthesis markup language (SSML) to adjust the speaking rate, modify pronunciation, emphasize words, add pauses, and more.
Launch the Articulate 360 desktop app on your computer to take advantage of this update, and click the Update button next to Storyline 360. You'll find our step-by-step instructions here.
Please let me know if you need additional help!
Hello Yuyen and Concetta,
So, to begin with, some of our IDs found a workaround for the playback speed, but it's clunky. If you open the video up in another window and right click on it, the browser offers tools to adjust speed. This is crazy making for us and our students, as there is good research on cognition and playback speed, which I posted earlier. We like to say that we not only practice evidence-based medicine, but also evidence-based pedagogy!
Our Ed Tech team is researching how to make Articulate modules searchable in OneNote, and I think they found one, but I don't know the details yet. I will post when I learn more about this-- Meanwhile, we are posting modules in two formats, too. One in Word to take notes on, and the actual module. However, the Word module, produced from Storyline360, is really pictures of text that can't be grabbed to make flashcards. I would love to be able to turn on a feature to allow students to make flashcards.
Medical school curriculum is dense and efficiency rules the day. Educational materials must be "high yield." If they aren't, there are lots of ancillary business cropping up (Boards and Beyond, Sketchy Micro, etc.,) usurping our content and delivering it in a way that students can access easily and import into to Quizlet or Anki.
I don't have a good understanding of Articulate 360 as a company. It appears that many software engineers work remotely. There is a friendly, robust, and responsive sales dept.
