Microleaning navigation menu

The numberred stepped navigation menu in microlearning tools does not appear in tablet and mobile viewing options, only in the destop option. The instructional and educational design of our microlearning tools depend on this menu in order to quickly locate specific content and navigate our tool freely. How can the menu be activated at least for the tablet view? Thank you for all help in this matter!

  • Hi ÉquiLibre​

    Glad to see Gary has been helping you!

    I noticed that you've also connected with my colleague Christian, through a support case. As he shared, Rise 360's Microlearning feature is designed to be fully responsive, which means it automatically adjusts the layout and navigation to fit smaller screen sizes, such as tablets. It's the expected behavior for the Stepped Navigation to be replaced with a simplified interface to improve usability, and support touch controls.

    This behavior cannot be modified, however, we are tracking a feature request to give Rise 360 authors the option. We've included your voice in the request!

    We'll be sure to update you if this feature makes it to our product roadmap.

  • Yes, I’ve noticed that too both tablet and mobile. The stepped navigation menu is no where to be seen. This I guess is to maintain a nice clean interface and learners can navigate using the Next and Previous buttons. It’s for consistency and accessibility.

    Check out these alternatives you can try:

    Make a Table of Contents: at the beginning of your microlearning module, include a block that outlines the steps or sections.

    Use Button Stack or Accordion blocks to list and link to each section.

    This way learners have an overview and direct access to specific content areas.

    Use Standard Course Format: If navigation flexibility isimportant, consider creating your content using the standard Rise 360 course format instead of the microlearning format.

    The standard format includes a sidebar menu that's accessible on all device types, providing consistent navigation options.help.rise.com

    Feedback to Articulate: Share your feedback with the Articulate team regarding the importance of consistent navigation across devices.

    User feedback can influence future updates and feature enhancements.

    Try one of these an let me know if you need any help.

      Hi garymoulton-a40​!

      Thank you for the feedback!

      As I shared with ÉquiLibre​, this is the expected behavior when viewing Rise Microlearnings on smaller screens. We are tracking a feature request, to give Rise authors the option to include Stepped Navigation on mobile devices. I've included your voice in the request!

      We'll be sure to update you as soon as we have news to share!
