Survey questions in Rise 360?
I am working on a compliance course and want to use Rise 360. There are a few polling type questions that we want to ask learners for and be able to see their responses within our Saba LMS. In addit...
Hi Kim
I can provide an example of how we have done this in Storyline - I will just have to modify one of our client projects as they are proprietary - I'll just create a simple survey - shouldn't take me too long.
Will send a link ASAP.
In the meantime, here's a link to the other part of what we are working on - this demonstrates downloading a pdf notes page from a Storyline block in RISE. This is brand new - we only got it working a couple of days ago - apologies if it's not fully tested...

Note that the pdf is created from a pdf form template. The Storyline gets input from the learner and then uses it to populate the pdf form - which the learner then downloads.
Ok great- thanks for sharing- look forward to seeing the storyline too

Hi Kim
After a little searching I found a course we did a couple of years ago that had a downloadable survey (results are downloaded as a pdf) that I could plunder for a demo:
https://demo8.profilelearning.com
I should emphasise that this demo - in its current form - would NOT work as a Storyline block in RISE😒. It uses the JavaScript library "jsPdf" and requires the HTML files to be edited after publishing the course.
But, as my earlier posts explain - we have now discovered ways to overcome that using the "pdf-lib" library. It would take some work to modify, but it is definitely possible to do. pdf-lib also has some better tools for drawing in a pdf.
We will put it on our "interesting projects to have a go at" list. But it may not get done just yet.
I would appreciate your thoughts - and comments on the demo....
i still have to capture the data to report on the results - that's the problem - they need a copy for their own records and we need to capture the data and report on analytics - why is this so difficult when we capture responses to questions - why not surveys?
John-While I completely appreciate the ingenuity in your proposed solution and believe it could be a really great tool for other learning needs, it does not at all address the purpose or need of a survey question directly in a course, in that it does not report the interaction to the LMS. That is the entire point of the request, and the whole reason many people publish SCORM files for an LMS...the ability to capture the interaction. There is simply no way to capture the audience interaction with a non-graded question using Rise, and get that data to the LMS.
I truly do see how your solution could be really beneficial to a lot of scenarios. But I don't think it really gets to the problem, that I believe Articulate should have solved by now...
Hi Kathy
I totally agree with what you are saying - To be fair I did say at the beginning of my original reply:
"I know this is not really what many of the developers on this thread need - as they are looking for the survey results to be stored centrally in the LMS..."
But I didn't want to start a new thread in case this might work for even a couple of the many, many developers that have requested this facility. As you say, it could be a solution in some circumstances....
...but we definitely need the facility building into RISE!
