NEW IN RISE 360: Scenario Block

Hey everyone, 

Thanks for your feedback on the character limits, and I hear where you're coming from! 

We've added these character limits to make sure your text is legible on all devices, especially on smaller mobile screens. What's more, shorter text segments make the interaction more conversational and natural. 

If you need to add more text to a dialogue content, consider adding a few text contents between dialog content. 

Want to see what that would look like in action? Check out Nicole Legault's Acing the Interview scenario. And If you want an inside look at exactly how she built this scenario, click here to send a copy of the course to your Rise 360 dashboard. 

Thanks for the comments & replies, everyone.  I certainly understand the reasoning - I am a designer, after all.  

Even 175-200 would be a huge help.  We love to use these scenario blocks for knowledge checks and roleplaying, where sometimes small nuances in wording can make a big difference.

One option would be, instead of allowing the bubble to expand, to have a scroll or arrow to allow a second panel of wording to show would be one way around the size issue.

We know you listen to our feedback and do what's possible, so thanks for that.

I would really like to see a feature to copy and paste the content easier. Also, options to add additional SL slides would be amazing!! Looking forward to any new features. 

Hi Heather! 

Tell me more about the content you want to copy and paste in a Scenario Block. Are you copying text from a Word Document and pasting it into the scenario? 

Also, if you want to add Storyline slides inside a Scenario Block, could you build the entire scenario inside of Storyline 360? That way, the scenario dialogue and the Storyline slides could be combined in one Storyline Block. 

I agree with the above comments.    I am working on an interview module using RISE 360 and it is hard to simulate an interview response and follow the STAR technique using 150 words with the Scenario block.   

All the backgrounds and characters are too USA-centric. There are no variations in costume, no middle eastern characters and a very limited range of office based backgrounds. If you are not going to release a reasonable range of options then please make it so we can upload our own characters and backgrounds. 

Hi Stevi,

Thanks for your feedback. I will share your request to see more cultural diversity in the character set and the ability to upload your own characters.

You can upload your own background image in a Scenario block by clicking Edit Background > Upload Image.

Is there any way to show a dialogue between two people?  I'm creating training and I'd like to show a conversation between customer and shop owner, and ask how they would respond (coach on our processes).

Hi, Erika! The scenario block in Rise 360 was designed to be an interaction between the character and the learner, so there isn't a way to show a dialogue between two characters. 

Instead, this would be a perfect opportunity to use a custom scenario built with Storyline, then embedded in Rise 360 using a Storyline Block. 

This scenario template should get you started! 

These are great but limited - it would be great if we could add our own characters and other ways to make them more relevant to the training.
