What's the purpose of the RISE checkbox lists?

I can't figure out the purpose of the RISE checkbox lists. As far as I can see when the user checks one, they are selected but no other actions occurs. In my view, a user would expect an action to occur in the course related to their selection, e.g. recommendations for further investigation of the checklist point, links to that part of the RISE lesson to review, link to a Storyline interaction, etc. 

My first impression was that I would incorporate the objectives of the course into these checklists so learners could evaluate their command of the content using the checklist and be directed to where they could improve their skills/knowledge based ont heir checklist response.

Maybe I am not thinking of another useful attribute for these checklists. What do other use them for? Does it seem awkward to them that no action occurs based what the user checks? Am I missing something? Thank you.

    Sorry to jump onto this thread.  I've used a checkbox list as a way of getting people to acknowledge they understand what they've learnt and their responsibilities (at the end of a course) and then placed a divider below set as 'above must be completed'.

    However, once they have ticked the box, and can then continue, the checkbox could be unticked and they could take a photo as evidence that they didn't tick the box (just thinking of possible eventualities).

    I'm curious what others might do to get someone to acknowledge something like this e.g. compliance training.  Thank you

    I'm with Robin on this one. It seems counter-intuitive to online learning to have checks solely fo the sake of checks - let's push learners into a guided experience.  Would love to see Rise offer more options with the check - links to additional content when interacted with, or pop-ups with feedback.
