Adding audio in Rise

I share the same sentiment, particularly with a variety of learning styles. I look forward to when this feature is made available. 

Like Linda, I am curious to see if narration options have been added.  Super helpful as some of our learners have limited literacy! 

Hi Carmen!

The multimedia audio block allows you to record your own narration or upload an audio file from your hard drive. Would that option work for you?

Possibly!  Could I record a block of narration for every block of text?  I need it to play while the learner is scrolling through the content.  Does it work that way? I'll research the multimedia audio block meanwhile.

Thanks!

Hi Carmen!

You certainly could do that. Keep in mind that audio blocks do not play automatically. Learners will click the play button when they are ready to listen to the narration. 

I definitely need the ability to narrate Rise and am surprised this conversation has been going on for a year... is there any update?

Hi Stephanie, 

You can add narration to Rise 360 using any block that supports audio. 

For example, the multimedia audio block allows you to record your own narration or upload an audio file from your hard drive. Would that option work for you?

Any update on this request?  I too was looking at adding an audio file to a flash card.

Hi Glenn! Flashcards in Rise 360 only support images. Can you tell us more about how you would want to use audio in Flashcards? 

I would also like to see this feature added.

Adding audio to flashcards would be extremely useful for language instruction, especially when presenting new vocabulary words where students are learning to pronounce and hear the words in addition to learning the meaning. You can see this example in Quizlet:

Another vote for adding audio narration to Rise. Auto-play not essential. 

Hi Jan! 

You can add narration to Rise 360 using any block that supports audio. 

For example, the multimedia audio block allows you to record your own narration or upload an audio file from your hard drive. Would that option work for you?

That is the museum type of tour. We are looking for audio synchronized with changing images.

Thanks, Alyssa, that can work. I didn’t even think of that!

Jan

Is there any update on this request for audio in RISE? Would be a great feature.

It's been years. Any update? Thanks!

Hi there, Lisa. We don't have plans to allow audio or video to automatically play within a lesson. Learners must initiate playback of that media.

+1 for this feature. Are there any plans for this to make it onto the roadmap? Please advise. Thanks!

I am also interested in this feature. I am honestly quite surprised to find it is not possible at the moment.
