Make it easier to review completed courses
Hi!
I create application training, which users sometimes will need to review when they encounter a problem. The first time through I would like them to have to click a continue button to gradually reveal the content. When they return it would be better if there was a mode where the continue buttons were gone and they could scroll through the lessons. I am picturing a toggle at the top of the lesson they could switch. Clicking it can prompt a pop-up that says: "If this is the first time you are doing this course, please continue the lesson as it is. If you are a returning learner who want to review the content, you can enable this feature to make scrolling through the content easier"
Ideally this switch would happen automatically when the user has completed the course once, but I imagine this might be hard to implement into the software.
Another usefull feature for returning learners would be a search feature, so that they could easily jump to the topic they need to review.

Hi Hanne,
Thank you for the feedback! Allow me to address each of your requests separately.
Review Completed Courses:
Rise currently supports functionality similar to what you've described when distributing a course through a Learning Management System. Authors can build a course that reveals content progressively by using Continue Blocks set to 'Complete All Blocks Above'. Once a learner completes the course for the first time, those Continue Buttons disappear and remain hidden. Allowing the learner to progress through the lessons freely. However, this behavior is reliant on the capabilities of the specific LMS being used, and the 'suspended data' limits of that LMS.
Having said that, I can see the value in the specific example you've provided. A toggle switch that can be added to the start of a Rise course, allowing learners to switch between different course "versions". I've submitted this as a feature request on your behalf!
Search Feature For Returning Learners:
I can confirm that we've been tracking this exact request. A search feature that allows learners to parse through only completed lessons on a navigation-restricted course. I've included your voice in that request, and we'll be sure to notify you if we release a future update that helps.
In the meantime, I'd like to highlight one of our Rise: Labs features, called AI Tutor. When enabled, it acts as a course companion for learners. Allowing them to ask questions, request explanations, or summarize key points. I see that your Articulate 360 Teams subscription currently has AI Assistant enabled. I suggest exploring this feature when you get the chance, then share your feedback with us here.
Please let me know if I can help with anything else!
