Rise notes utility
I added a global utility bar to my Rise course to add a simple 'notes' piece, data is kept in the browser's local storage and it will not write to SCORM. Because of the global nature of this addon, it can be a handy way to make the functionality, and even some branding, always available to users across your entire course.

This is fantastic! Looks really neat.
We upload our Rise SCORM files to a Moodle site - will this functionality still work? I'm a bit of a newbie... but if you could drop tutorials for both the glossary and the notes function that would be amazing, as I'd like to explore this further 🙏Hi Phil, looks great! Could you share how you did it?
A) I've never found any way to add a global header.
B) Would love to know the logistics of adding notes capability so learners can write down questions to ask in the ILT session that follows the elearning prereq I'm building.Thanks!
Hi Claire and Greg, indeed I'm working on wrapping up some documentation and will be providing the source files, glad you like the concept. GregYounger-89b as long as the user doesn't clear their browser cache completely, it will save their data, and the global header is pretty easy. And ClaireBogue-155 actually this method of calling in the separate notes/glossary pages requires this to be hosted on a webserver, it won't work locally on your computer (unless you have a local webserver set up) I haven't tested on Moodle but I'm pretty sure it will work on any LMS I'd like to connect if you're up for kicking the tires.
Hey, love this! Was there every any notes? I would love to test this out in my LMS
Thank you Phil!
(If I get this working, I'll be hosting the course in an LMS as well--will keep you posted.)Thank you Phil! Look forward to seeing your documentation and having a go at implementing it. Will keep you posted too 🤓
Add me to the list of uses eager to see how to implement BOTH of these features!
Coming from Moodle where coding your courses and adding in Journals (Notes) and Glossaries were incredibly simple, the limitations in Rise have been frustrating. Our courses are too text-heavy for Storyline so we've been trying to squeeze all we can out of Rise.
Really looking forward to viewing your documentation when it's available. Thank you!Ok so not quite the same as this is not java or global... BUT you did inspire me to try to vibe code a version using the new code block. This is my example of reflection blocks throughout a course - which a learner can then print or email at the end.
https://share.articulate.com/hmBmSQUpD5vvRNAR-v_FaThis is fantastic. Thank you so much for sharing. I appreciate this so much and am so grateful for people like you who share your fabulous work. As someone with no coding experience, this (together with Copilot) has enabled me to create reflection blocks.
Question - how do you clear the saved reflections?
Hoorah! Glad it's been useful. I also don't have coding experience so developed this with Gemini.
In response to your question - you can't clear the saved reflections, it's pulling from your computer as it is saved locally. Anything with the course ID will be pulled - so very important to ensure that every new course has a new ID.
That said - I saw an example earlier linked below, with a notebook example where you can edit and delete notes. So maybe there's an opportunity to work this idea up further so provide more editing rights to the learner. I will have a think/play and if I can make it work will update!Amazing. Thank you so much for your prompt reply.
I will take a look at the example too.
