What's the purpose of the RISE checkbox lists?

Right now, we are using checkboxes just as they are designed to be used, with directions that say "click box as you complete the task." I fully support the idea of being able to provide feedback, additional information, links, or showing another block. 

I can see the use-cases described for tracking. While I don't foresee that helping in our case, I'm willing to bet that we may find a use for tracking if it were to become available. 

I'm able to print CSR handouts from each of my 'storyline' projects. Is there a way to print a CSR handout from a RISE course? I dont see an option..

Hi Kimberly,

Looks like I answered your other post here with a similar question! The ETA on that feature is sometime this quarter, so we'll let you know as soon as it's ready. 

Hey Lindsay,

I hear you, and thanks for letting us know how we can improve this feature! If we add this functionality to checkbox lists in the future, we'll let you know. 😁

I've used the checkbox as a way for the learner to validate their own thinking against an 'official' list. For instance before the checklist an open-ended question like "What would you do in order to ..... Make some notes (they would do this off-line) and then press Continue below" and then instructions like "Did you come up with the same answers as us? Tick the ones that were on your list". 

Hope that makes sense!

I used this feature recently and made it a SCROM , however it only allows the user to tick off the list in the moment, say if he was to exit course nad then return back or there was a connection issue and he was to open course again, all his check marks are lost and not saved. Strangely, it doesnt save changes even is you go to the next section and then come back Lesson/Section 1. As far as I know this check box option should be saved so when you do check it, you can complete the incompleted boxes. If we are using checkboxes as click boxes to complete a task we must be able to have these checks saved. Or maybe not have check box under Lists and have a checklist feature and a complete seperate option that enables us to save these intereactions while on the go.

I would love to see that the use the checkbox list in a different aspect - we have created a challenge for onboarding our new hires and we want to record answers (boxes that are checked off) but we see no way to do that. This course will live in our LMS , so we want this information to be able to transfer to the platform. Is this something that is possible ?

Hi everyone,

These are all great ideas! If you have time to log a feature request and tell us more about your specific needs, that would be super helpful!

Let me know if there’s anything else I can help you with.

Thank you for that insight, Matthew! It's really helpful to know how folks are using the Checkbox List block. 

I am checking in to see if there have been any new updates to the check box feature in Rise?? Like Cecily and Wendy, I need this feature for new employees to check off they have completed a task and for the system to save it for when they return to it later. Thank you.
