Has anyone found a way to create a glossary in Rise 360 that is easily and readily available for learners, as needed? This can be done in Storyline 360 by including it as a resource but I haven't figured out a workaround for Rise. Any assistance is appreciated!!

There are several issues related to this approach for our organization. Using a button to get to the Glossary means that learners are navigated to a completely different lesson. Learners must remember which lesson they were busy with, and then manually find their way back to where they were before jumping to the Glossary. This may sound like a trivial thing to do, but we have some very large courses with more than 100 Lessons. As the Glossary is a Lesson, it becomes a problem for us as our course completions are based on the percentage of the course viewed. The Glossary Lesson becomes a part of that percentage and learners that do not need to view the Glossary, may have problems achieving course completion status. At best this is a workaround. For a Glossary to be effective, it needs to be a Globally available resource that can be opened, viewed and closed without the learner being required to physically navigate away from their current Lesson.

All of the ideas in the video are not viable options. They need the learners to navigate to other lessons and then back to where they were. We need a proper glossary button at the top, next to the menu button, that allows us to open a popup dialogue without navigating away from the lesson. It looks like this is a feature that many people are looking for. Is this going to be included on the Rise roadmap any time soon? Considering this thread is two years old, it should be a must for the product.

Guys, I have created a glossary that exists as its own URL, external to RISE. I drop the link at the bottom of each section and have it open in an external window if the user click on it. That is a decent workaround for us.

I'm currently working on a old moodle course to bring it back to 2020 ;) I'm using Rise 360, I can get a lot done, but on their end what I liked was that the "glossary" was on the words itself. So as you do your course, a word is highlighted in a different colour, when you hover over it, a question mark appears and if you click a small popup window attached to the word pops out with the glossary for that word.. pretty neat feature that would be great to have in Rise! Marc.

Hello! It's 2024 - has there been a solution for a glossary yet? Thank you!

The fact that storyline has this but rise doesn't boggles my mind.

I have used a storyline block to add a glossary. If published to teams folder in review 360 it can be shared across multiple courses.

Any resource glossary option yet? I can't believe this post has been up for 5 years and still nothing. Has there been any new developments? Inquiring minds want to know. Thanks!

    I think customers would really love to get insight into how features are prioritised - it consistently seems to be that totally new shiny things that aren't being asked for are prioritised over and above incredibly basic things that customers are screaming for (for 5,6 7,years!). Ignoring the basics is a fundamental error in customer service!

Its possible! Keep in mind Rise exports standard website files. This example shows a modification to my course that loads a simple glossary html file. Users can access via the global nav at top, from anywhere in the course.

    That's weird my previous response is missing. Am I being moderated? Anyway, I posted this recently in a challenge Rise notes utility | Articulate - Community
    
    Which btw is nearly impossible to find or navigate to on this website without a direct link.
