Survey or Short Answer Questions
Absolutely love Rise, but one feature I'm hoping is coming in the future, or better yet, I'm just not realizing is an option.
I'd love the ability to put in a box for my end users to fill out their own thoughts on a subject, a survey or short answer question. Is that something that's possible in Rise?
Hi Daniel!
So glad to hear that you're loving Rise and our team is working hard to improve it everyday.
Additional question types are certainly on the radar and the intention is to release them as they are ready.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us you can stay up to date with all of the new things we've added to Rise right here!

You could embed an online form - i.e. a Google Form or a JotForm etc.

Thanks Stuart - I'm not great with viewing source content on chrome and figuring out what to change - or is there an easy way to embed a non video in Rise that I'm not seeing?
- StuartMarshall-Community Member
Hi Daniel, Yes - the multimedia > Embed block allows you to paste an iframe code into it so this can be used for lots of different things - including forms.

Perfect - thanks Stuart, didn't even consider embedding non video. Appreciate it!

If I want to have a text block for a long-form submission that isn't graded, how would I do that with Rise? What about for Yes/No questions that don't require grading?
If I embed a Google Form or something, it ultimately pipes data OUT of the LMS - and I want to keep everything self contained. Any suggestions?
Trying to use a Storyline block has proven far more difficult, and I'm not sure where the user submissions go.
Hello, Richard. It sounds like you need two things: a short answer question type, and the ability to see learner responses.
Rise doesn't currently send question-level data to an LMS. The good news is that it's on our feature roadmap. We don't have a delivery date for it yet, but I'll be sure to let you know as soon as it's available. I'll bring the idea of a larger text entry option to the team, as well!
As far as Yes/No questions, would knowledge checks work for you? Or would you need to collect learner responses for those questions, also?

Hi Crystal,
Unfortunately, and I may be doing this entirely wrong, but the knowledge checks still seem to have a Correct/Incorrect evaluation. If we had questions like, "Were you bullied at school?" or "Do you like tacos?," I'd rather the participants just submit "Yes" or "No" without having to assign a "correct" answer to their responses - but I also want the ability to send individual feedback messages.
Bummer about the long-form submissions. I think, additionally, having a survey option or Likert option, would be super helpful. Right now, I'm getting seriously bogged down trying to incorporate Storyline 360 templates into Rise - and noticing that they don't preview well when you select Mobile (just shows a video Play button that does nothing). Doesn't matter how I export the slides from Storyline.
We are still able to receive completion data, right?
Finally, when you say Rise doesn't send question-level data, do you mean that we are not able to receive any knowledge check information to our LMS? :/
Hi, Richard! Circling back on Crystal's post to let you know that Rise courses now send question-level details to an LMS – so you can observe what learners know and where they need more help!
Continue to stay in the Rise know by checking out its release notes here!
Hi EJ,
I did want to let you know that as of last week, Rise courses will send question-level details to an LMS – so you can observe what learners know and where they need more help. Looks like that will help with #3 on your list - we'll keep you posted as other new features are released to Rise.

great improvement on Rise with Quiz but a bit limited (multiple choice, fill in the blank, or matching). Can't wait for longer form submissions e.g. feedback
many thanks

We are also looking for an option with free text responses in Rise. Is this in the pipeline and is there an ETA on this?
Thanks in advance
Hey Nathan. Thanks for checking in. We've documented the requests to have a survey or text entry style interaction in Rise where learners can enter a block of text. We haven't announced plans for this feature yet.
My team is making sure we prioritize this request properly, though! We'll update you here if we expect any changes. Here's a bit more about how we handle feature requests.

We need survey questions as well. The client wants to extract this information form the learners. Has this been added yet? Another item missing that we need! Bummer! I'd use SL360, but this client is all mobile devices, and SL360 is not responsive in the way they want it to look (seamless). Course look so nice on mobile devices, but it's just still lacking more interactivity, the ability to start courses over when completed, audio in scenarios, to name a few. Sorry, but once again, I get excited about something new the clients ask for, and then have to give the bad news....just a little frustrated, I'm sorry.
Hi all,
A quick update: we've added additional question types to the knowledge check block. You'll now be able to add matching, multiple response, and fill-in-the-blank questions.
Watch the announcement video here, and let us know if you have any questions!

I, too, am looking for an ungraded essay question type in Rise with the ability to pass the learner responses to an LMS. Until that functionality exists, I'm looking for 'work-around' solutions. I'm thinking of using the fill-in-the-blank question type to capture information from learners in Rise. Is there an accept-all-responses command that I can input into the acceptable answer field so learners will not receive the 'incorrect' feedback for any response they enter?
