Using Storyline module as a digital workbook during a f2f session
Why not just give them a PowerPoint or Word document (or equivalent software, depending on what the tablet allows)? That could include the course notes/diagrams and provide space for the user to enter their own notes. And then just let them keep their copy of the file.
Hi Judy, thanks for the reply. Ideally i'd like some slides to be interactive using things such as a dial or slider, as well as text inputs for reflections. I've been tasked with adding something digital to make the course 'next level' and while word/powerpoint are good suggestions I just don't feel it gives it that extra something to make the course seem different to normal. Thanks for the suggestion though - i'll edit the post to add about interactivity. Matt
Thanks for clarifying, Matt.
Here's another option: Use Short Answer and/or Essay Survey Questions for the student notes.
- You could design those slides so they don't look like survey questions. For example, use Slide Properties to remove the Submit button and to include the Prev & Next buttons. Then add the Submit [Short Answer/Essay] trigger to the Next button (or a custom button).
You'll also need to include a Survey Results slide. Again, you can design it to look any way you want. Include a Print Results button on that, and the program will create a page with all the "answers" that the learner entered.
- Caveat: You can't control how this page looks. It is what it is.
- I vaguely recall seeing a Forum post about using other programming (possibly JavaScript) to create/export custom PDFs. You could try searching for that sort of solution.
Hi Judy - apologies late reply. Just wanted to say thanks for this. All mega useful. Java is defo something I want to learn more about and this will be a useful project for learning this. Thanks!
