Rise Assessments Triggering Employee Distress in an Employee

That's truly important information to share. I'm sure most folks don't realize how even small animations can have such a distressing impact. 

To ensure that the Articulate staff sees this info, I suggest you contact them directly. There are two options:

• Submit a case that indicates this is something wrong with Rise. You can do that here: Contact Support for Help with Any Articulate E-Learning Course Development Software
• Submit a feature request that asks for that animation to be turned off. You can do that here: Help Us Improve Our E-Learning Software by Submitting a Feature Request (articulate.com) 

Any potential fix would take a while. In the meantime, you could use Storyline blocks for the quizzes. Here's how to ensure the user has to pass the quiz to complete the Rise course:

• In the Storyline file, add a Complete Course trigger to the Success layer of the Quiz Results slide. 
• When you publish the Storyline quiz to Review 360, indicate that tracking should be done via that completion trigger.
• Insert the quiz into Rise via an interactive Storyline block.
• When you publish the Rise course, indicate that tracking should be done via the Storyline completion trigger.

Note: This method allows you to track that someone passed the quiz. However, it doesn't pass the score to the LMS. (To me, that's not a big deal. In companies I've worked with, I don't think anyone even looks at final passing scores. They just want to know if someone passed/completed or not.)

Hi Elizabeth,

Thank you for bringing this to our attention! I’m so sorry to hear the quiz animation caused physical distress. We take this issue seriously, and I'm working with our team to resolve it. I'll let you know as soon as we have an update to share.

Thanks for jumping in Judy! This is indeed very important. 

Regards,
Marvie

Thanks, Judy, for this very helpful response. I contacted Articulate and I also completed the workaround which I sent this morning to be tested by the two employees that raised the issue. I'll post their feedback when I get it! Cheers, Elizabeth. 

Thank you, Marvie.

Hello Elizabeth!

Just checking in to let you know that Rise 360 quizzes should no longer animate if the device it's being viewed at has Reduce Motion turned on in OSX, and Animation Effects turned off in Windows. 

Again, thank you so much for bringing this to our attention.

Cheers!

Marvie

Wonderful! Thank you, Marvie, for this solution!
