Rise and Audio
But Crystal...the learner has to manually click on the audio block, correct? Or is there a way for the audio to automatically run within the block or on the page without the manual click. That's what I really need for a project I'm working on. My audio doesn't need to be placed in a specific spot on a timeline, as in Articulate 360...but it does need to just play from the beginning of the block/page. Is that at all possible?
Hey there, Michele. Thanks for joining the conversation!
Media in Rise must be clicked to play (unless it’s an animated image, like a .GIF).
We have shied away from auto-start of media because it’s not a web-standard experience on multi-device. Most phone browsers actually prevent auto-play of media. It usually needs to be user-initiated.
I’ll let our team know that auto-playing audio is a feature you’d like to see!
Thanks Crystal,
What you're saying makes sense. I appreciate you sending this info to the Rise team, too, though.
Rise would be the perfect tool for the particular, short course I'm designing. I was going to try - for the first time - to export it to SCORM 1.2 for our LMS. It looks like I'll need to create it with Articulate 360, instead; which has been pure pleasure, by the way. :)
Thanks again!
Michele
Absolutely! I'm happy to hear that you're working it all out. Let me know if you need a hand!
