I would love to have a section that could be reachable at any point in the course for users to make notes or to comment? Has anybody seen any work arounds? Seems like a HUGE feature request, its just that our case studies and focus groups are showing that the end user want's to be able to make notes.
I want to have a notes section in Rise. I created a block in Storyline with a text entry field and imported it into Rise. The problem is that it doesn't save the user's notes. When they enter text, it disappears after they click into another lesson and return to the notes section. Am I missing something? Perhaps I just have a setting wrong?
Hi there, Customer Education Services. Sorry for the confusion! Storyline blocks always restart from the beginning once you return to them from another lesson. They will keep their progress while in the same Rise 360 lesson.
A note taking feature would be extremely valuable for us. Rise ticks a lot of the boxes but is let down by not having this feature. As this is crucial for our courses we are having to look elsewhere at other software options. We have experimenting using a Storyline block with text entry field but there seems to be no way for the learner to save/print out or export their responses so this a real limitation for us. Please add my vote for this feature - it would be amazing!
I wish I had a vote to give for everyone on my global team to the above request. A notes feature, even a simplistic one/scratch-pad/etc, is the most requested item from our instructors and learners. Telling them to open up Word or Notepad++ usually receives an eye roll.
We use Articulate Review internally and I understand how that would be tough to implement into an export. However, we've seen w/ the creative methods some users have made custom .js options to have note style inputs and printable output; I'm not sure why a similar feature wouldn't be feasible for Articulate to make an official block/feature for us to utilize.
Thanks for checking in, Taylor! We haven't added a learner notes feature to Rise 360 yet. I appreciate you letting us know you need this for your courses!
Please know that Taylor isn’t the only person who is waiting for this enhancement. Multiple owners and learner’s notes were things we were looking forward too as well. It allows us to better use Rise as both a facilitator and a participant guide.
Wish I'd realized before I started using it that Rise didn't have note taking functionality -- it's a must-have, please consider (though at this point, the thread is 3 years old, so is it even remotely possible?)
I have used Storyline blocks in Rise for reflective questions, however in Mobile devices (iOS and Android) this displays as a play button. However, we would like to see it appear exactly as it does when done on a computer/laptop. Any solution?
Pranoy, on mobile devices, Storyline blocks will always require a learner interaction to launch the Storyline content. This is why the play button displays for those blocks. If we make a change to that behavior, we'll let you know!
It looked as if a year ago (on this thread) this was added to the task list...? Has a feature for note taking become available yet in Rise? I've started using Rise for teaching a cohort of 300+ students and their overwhelming response to it is that it is a brilliant resource for their learning but they need to be able to annotate it with their own notes.
Without this feature, the students' feedback is so strong that I'm not sure it will be a viable resource to use with them long term.
Nope, nothing yet. Not sure how much of a priority it is for Articulate but my entire department of producers (along with all our learners) have been waiting patiently for this functionality.
Hey, folks! We really appreciate you letting us know you need a survey in Rise 360. This is certainly a popular request! We'll let you know if we add it to the roadmap.
For now, your best bet is to embed a form from a third-party tool (like Google Forms or Survey Monkey) using a Multimedia Embed block.
Use this iFrame code format for easy embedding! <iframe src="URL HERE"></iframe>
Thank you Alyssa. This request is actually not for a survey but for a running Notes feature that Learners can use to capture thoughts throughout the course of training.
I so want a notes feature - so definitely another vote here.
I've just been playing with the feature and the iframe code shared above, my rise content (and associated documents) are housed on a SharePoint page - so I've just attempted to set up a new list in SharePoint (a simple title and free text box), linked the iframe to the add new frame of the SharePoint list. - this sort of works, in that a person can add notes and they are captured in a way that can be accessed, but its not perfect.
I've then set up the default view of the list as a personalized view (where a person can only see their own entries)

Yes, another vote for a note-taking function. To print notes to PDF would be an added bonus!

Add me to that list... I'd love to have this feature added.
Voting for this feature.
We have a client who would be very interested in this feature and it would be great to know if there's any progress on developing it!
Any update on this?

Curious to know if anyone has found a work-around for this yet?
Add another vote for me to add this functionality.

I'm afraid not without changing the files post publish. I've looked into this for the same reason.
This is a solution we developed, but it has the same issue with the play button for mobile: https://community.articulate.com/discussions/rise-360/solution-storyline-block-for-text-input-and-save-to-cmi-interactions-scorm-1-2
Thanks for the answer, Sam.

+1 here too. Note taking feature with the ability to export to PDF or even LMS would be amazing

Very much need this feature!
I came here looking for an option to add notes to Rise based on learner feedback as well. Please add yet another vote for a notes option in Rise.
