Learning Journal In Rise
UPDATE JUNE 2020:
Firstly, Articulate recently implemented a small update to Rise. As a result, all new exports from Rise will need to include the most recent version of LearningJournal.js which is found at the usual link.
Secondly, at any time Articulate could update their code and bring a breaking change to the Learning Journal. Over a year ago, I shared this functionality freely with the community and the code comes with no warranty or support either implied or expressed. If at any time you want or need to remove the Learning Journal from your modules, simple remove any STATEMENT-NOTE entries that refer to the Learning Journal.

I built a cool Learning Journal feature for Rise that has been very well-received. I thought I'd share it in case anyone wanted to a. use it or b. improve on it.
The Learning Journal allows the learner to enter text responses to journal prompts throughout a Rise course. At the end of the course, the learner can print their learning journal of all their responses. The responses are saved to the browser so that they persist on future visits to the Rise course.
EDIT May 2019: At the request of a member of the forum, I created a HOW-TO video below that shows each step of the HOW-TO document in action.

I would love any feedback and help to improve the functionality and code.

Nice!
Hi all, thanks again to Mike Amelang for developing and sharing this great tool.
I have used it previously with a few bumps here and there, but am stumped by this one - the journal boxes appear in the course (and you can enter text in them) but not the question prompts.
If I test it by adding text to the boxes, I can get a printout of the journal and all the Section information and journal entry text appears there, but you can't see it online in the course.
I have tried rebuilding each journal entry using a block template that worked OK earlier this year, but get the same issue.
I've attached the SCORM file in case someone wants to take a look. I have no programming knowledge - which is why I use Rise :-)
This is excellent - thank you
HI Tracy,
Yes I would be happy to, any time after Tuesday next week. We're on Australian Eastern Standard time here. Can you send me a Zoom meeting invite for a time that works for us both?
Cheers

HI! How do I remove the Print Actions button? Thanks!
Were you able to figure this out? I am trying to delete it as well.
Hi there
I've just tried to run a test file following the instructions, but when I open the .html file in textedit (i'm working on a mac so can't use notepad++) it is empty. If I open with Chrome I can see the lines but can't edit. Can anyone advise how I can view and edit the file?
Hi guys, this is a great bit of info and it looks really good when I've used it. My only issue seems to be the Print My Actions button. I have multiple sections, some with actions and some without. But it only seems to show my very first section on Print my Actions. Anyone else come across this?
Awesome - that works. I also found (later) that I could ignore the message and save the files (for anyone getting the same issue). Thanks, Matthew - really appreciate your help and this community of users!
This is amazing work, Mike. Thank you for so generously sharing.
I’m running into an issue where the formating looks very odd. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks in advance!
Thanks Mike. This looks like just what we need. Unfortunately, I get this message from Google Chrome when I try to save the two files:
