Open text box/field in Rise 360
Hi. Is it possible to add an open, blank text field in a lesson on Rise 360? I would like users of my course to be able to write reflective comments as I pose questions.
Thanks, Dan.
Hi Dan,
This feature isn't available in Rise yet, but thank you for letting us know that it's important to you. It's always helpful to know how in-demand a feature is and the Articulate team currently has a feature request logged for this capability. In the meantime, you could always build a free response question in Storyline and embed it in Rise using a Storyline Block.
And having done that, is there a way that the facilitator can provide feedback on the reflection?
Thanks, Jenn
Hi Jenn,
If you design a free-response or survey question in Storyline 360 and embed it in Rie 360, the course facilitator won't be able to read the learner's response.
If you want the ability to capture the learner's reflection, you can embed a survey from a third-party tool (like Google Forms or Survey Monkey) using a Multimedia Embed block. Use this iFrame code format for easy embedding!

I am interested in this feature too. I don't need the moderator to see the responses, but it would be amazing if the learner could go back and view their reflections at a later date.
This feature would be very helpful for a project I'm working on.
So I am gathering we still do not have the ability to add an open text box field that allows learners to respond to reflection questions that do not need to be graded. Is this correct? I'm following through multiple posts that look like they date back 3 years ago on this topic. I'm trying to find a way to do this that is not outside of Rise as I want to package it all in one SCORM bundle. Is this possible? Thanks!
That's right, Andrea. This is a popular request, and we'll follow up with you if we add a free-response question in the future!
I see that there was another request for this 9 days ago. I would like an update on this as well. As this is a popular request can we please have confirmation that this is being actively looked at?
Similar to Andrea, I've been following several posts with this request, and it has not been addressed in years. Is this a feature that is in the works yet?
Hi J V! Here's a look at the new features we're planning for Rise 360. If we add free-response questions to the roadmap in the future, we'll let you know!
Agreed, this is something I'd love to do now! I'll try out the free response question in Storyline however, having it in Rise 360 would be amazing!
Thank you
Ashleigh
Yes! This is desperately needed!
The work around is convoluted and not scalable for our large organization.
I created a text box in Storyline (just a blank input text) and then brought that into a Rise 360 course as a Storyline block. Works perfectly in Preview mode in Rise.
My LMS is D2L. When a student opens the course and clicks on a unit that contains one of the text boxes, it automatically defaults them down the page to the text box, instead of allowing them to start at the beginning and get to the text box after completing previous content. Any ideas on how to change this so that this doesn't happen?
