Rise or Storyline?

Hi Alice

@iris Schlabiz has given a great explanation of how you can integrate Storyline functionality in your RISE courses and that is definitely worth exploring...

...But looking at your wireframe image, I think you need to back up in your design a little. The image you have included is a typical 'course menu' screen. This screen is more usually part of the Learning Management System rather than a function of the course authoring tool (although the boundaries are becoming increasingly blurred).

So, a fairly standard set-up for a commercial learning and development operation is:

A. You have a website that promotes the course catalog (the course menu). The users choose a course, register on it and make a payment. The booking is confirmed and they then see the course in their 'enrolled' course menu.

You can create this part in a number of ways e.g. you might have a WordPress website with the LearnDash plug-in as the LMS and maybe the MemberPress plug-in for user registration and payment.

B. From the 'enrolled course menu', the user is directed to the course they have enrolled on.  Different LMS's have different hierarchies but typically a 'course' consists of a series of 'lessons' and the lessons may then contain 'topics'. A topic may be anything. It could be a video an interactive pdf, a Storyline module, a quiz....etc Sometimes 'lessons' and 'topics' are synonymous.

Storyline and RISE are both course authoring tools (Not LMS's).

RISE is a bit different in that it creates 'courses' that consist of 'lessons'. So, if you publish it to the web, it takes on some of the LMS role in that it offers you the 'lesson menu' on the screen. If you run this under an LMS you can end up with two menus - which is why it is possible to turn the menu off in RISE.

I hope this helps...
