I was recently building a bit of a technical course using Rise 360 and one of my observations was that it would be great if there was a note-block, or perhaps overlay on Rise 360 courses that allowed people to take notes, save resources, create their own checklist/resource list etc. and then print it or save it as a PDF post course completion.
Hi! I would also love a note taking feature in Rise. I am having learners practice a process, and I'd like for them to be able to make a note of their Batch number in the course and be able to reference back to it later. I tried building this with Storyline, but it doesn't remember their answer.
We have developed courses for our clients in RISE that use Storyline blocks at various points in the course to allow the learner to make their own notes. To overcome the problem that RISE has no variables and the variables used within each Storyline block are lost as soon as the learner exits the block, we store the text variables in local browser storage. (This is similar to the way a website would store cookies).
At the end of the course we then include a final Storyline block that retrieves the variables from local storage and then opens a pre-defined pdf form template and inserts the variables into the pdf and offers it for download.
This works fine and the learner can pause the course , exit it and then restart it and the variables are still available. Although it is important to stress that the notes are lost if the learner clears the browser cache, or restarts the course using a different browser or on a different device (because they are stored in the browser local storage).
I too would be interested in hearing updates on this notetaking feature in Rise courses. This would provide such a great interactive element these courses and another level of learning for so many.

Where is the note feature Articulate? Does it really take this long to add a note feature?
What's up with that?
I see a lot of people above that would really like this feature and it's been almost 2 years since the first post above.
Are there any updates perhaps if this feature will be available in Rise soon? This will be so helpful to the learners.
Jumping on this bandwagon. Please add me to the list, too, please!
