Rise 360: Healthy Debate Culture at Work
Here's a fantastic Rise 360 example. The course features a cohesive design style, custom graphics, a hidden sidebar, curved image backgrounds, and much more. If you're looking for Rise 360 inspiration, you'll find many creative ideas in this course.

- Hi guys, do you know if there is any instructional design data to support whether hiding the sidebar offers a better user experience?
- I was thinking the same. The only thing from an end user point of view is that one should be able to see the course progress. Not many learners completes the course in one go and sidebar showing progress is good once he/she resumes!! What you think?
- Agreed, Surender! When you disable the sidebar Rise also disables the progress bar which is a shame. In this case, the sidebar wasn't part of the design concept. But, hosted in the LMS the users are able to resume where they left.
- Hi Michelle, good question. I'll google it.
I think, it depends on the course you design and the concept behind it.
Cheers,

- Really great module Teresa! Love the visual and instructional design. How did you hide the contents or lessons on the welcome page?
- Hi Louise! Thanks for your feedback. Here's how to hide the sidebar: https://community.articulate.com/articles/rise-360-control-navigation#sidebar-visibility
- Fantastic work! Most Rise courses look pretty similar, but you managed to make it unique and outstanding! The visuals go really well with the content, and the interactions add true value.
- I agree, Fabian! Teresa really did an outstanding job with making it look and feel different from the ordinary design. I use Photoshop quite a bit to edit images if I cannot find them in the Content Library. I love how Articulate allows you to work with different applications to complete a presentation!
- Thanks for your feedback, Fabian! :)
- Love it, Teresa. Did you have to make all the curved pictures in 360 and then import them? Or how did you make the curved backgrounds?
- Thanks, Tamarah! I made the pictures in Illustrator and imported them. I got inspired by the amazing Amanda Nguyen with this tutorial: https://youtu.be/QNRW0edLTxA
- What an excellent example, Teresa! I like your use of background colors for the blocks.
- Thanks, Montse!
