Text to speech in Rise

Hi 

Perhaps there is an anwer in this forum but it takes way too much time to find the answer so here goes:

Is there any way to create AI text to speech so that its for a whole page /lesson in Rise?
meaning that there would be an option to play the audio at the end of every page/lesson?

It looks like you can only generate one block at a time by copy and paste which is very time consuming..

The AI in storyline seems to understund which text should be in the box (AI) but this is not happening in rise as far as i can see. so it´s more manual work..

please let me know if there is any smarter and faster way to do this.

This is so that learners with trouble reading could choose to play the audio.

Thanks for any input on thisone!

Best/Hannah :)

    This may not be the smartest solution, but I:
    Published my Rise course to PDF > Copied into a .txt file, (so only the text pasted) > used this in Storyline to produce Text to Speech.

    Hi
    Thanks for taking the time to answer!

    If I do that then the whole course will just be read? I´m thinking I would like to have it at the end of every block..
    There is text to speech in the AI part in Rise so storyline is not needed in my case but just need to figure out how to do this the smartest and quickest way.

     

    Thanks for your tip! :)

      Hi HannahSoini-ad7​!

      Glad to see Chris has been helping you!

      Currently in Rise 360, AI-Assisted Text-to-Speech can only be generated at a block-by-block level. Not across an entire lesson or course. I understand that having this level of functionality could improve your workflow. I've submitted this as a feature request on your behalf!

      For your use case, I suggest building a single Audio Block at the end of each lesson that contains all of the narration for that lesson's text. Learners can click "Play Narration" and consume all of the Text-to-Speech from that lesson's content.

      I'll also open the floor to other community members to share their design suggestions with you!
