This well-crafted interaction (an Articulate Guru Honorable Mention winner!) helps learners understand the deadly effects of the Ebola virus. Adjusting the slider makes it easy for learners to understand how Ebola fatality rates changed over time. And it’s effective because it lets learners interact directly with the data.

      Hi, The graphics were drawn in Adobe Illustrator before being converted to PNGs but the build is 100% Storyline 2.

    Of all the winners, I think I like this one about the best. The other winners are really clever and look great, but I feel that this one's 'time to create' (relatively low) vs 'adult learner engagement' (quite high) vs 'time to access' (quite quick) is very good.

    This one represents something that most clients that I deal with would be prepared to pay for as part of a larger initiative. Great example of a job aid/micro learning/part of an interactive infographic.

    Nice work, 4pt.

    Nice work, David. Including a map and highlighting the affected regions was a good idea. Also, positioning the map in-sync with the slider was another good idea.

      Thanks for your kind words Johar, you've summed up everything I wanted the infographic to be.
