How do you draft your Rise 360 courses?
Hey everyone! We've been pondering a Rise 360 course creation question and were hoping to get your thoughts on it.
When you begin working on a brand new course, which are you more likely to do:
...
I firmly believe that the first time the stakeholders see the content, it should be purely text-based. Most of the time, we are trying to tell a story and need to ensure it works before building. Building directly in the tool often confuses the situation where they comment on the interaction or the layout instead of the content. Once we have a flow, then the build starts.
Using Word or PPT allows them to edit the content and view it easily; Rise requires an Internet connect, but some of our Stakeholders will review on a plane or train and can download the file to their machine if access is limited.
In terms of making review easier or more inviting, it would be great to have a walkme type onboarding if it is the user's first time, in Rise allow the user to highlight text and add comments or click on the content and add content. Don't enforce logins as that is the biggest issue we have with reviewers. I would love to see voting functionality for comments so reviewers can upvote a previous comment or even downvote it.

I use PPT or Word for that reason as well - I want them to focus on content, not 'could you make it a different font/image/interaction'.
Such expectations as a different font or a different colour are prevented by binding style specifications. That's how we work on that side of the process.
