this was great, thanks. I learnt a few new tips for Trello, which I love but I also have some great ideas for using Rise 360 for my next project. Many thanks Madison
Hi Madison, what a great Trello tutorial this was. I'm new with Articulate Rise and have a question. How did you develop the 'Want to read more" section with the blue button which leads the reader to an embedded? new section.
Hi Monique! Welcome to the community!
I'm glad you found what you needed and I'm happy to hear you enjoy my tutorial! If you have any other questions about using Rise 360, don't hesitate to ask :)
Estimada Madison, deseo estés muy bien. Necesito realizar un tutorial sobre cómo utilizar la plantilla de MasterStudy (Wordpress) para los instructores de mi Academia. ¿Se podría hacer con Rise? Muchas gracias.
Hello! Great example! I was wondering, do all projects have to start with the page that says 'Start' and 'Details'? Or is that page a starter from being an example here? We're thinking of an idea for Rise but we would like to be able to choose a different set-up as the first thing a customer would see when in the training. Thank you!
Hi Eleni! All Rise 360 courses start with the course outline page. However, you can completely customize the built-in course elements—such as the "Start" and "Details" labels you're referring to. Here's an article that walks you through how to do that! https://articulate.com/support/article/Rise-How-to-Customize-Text-Labels
Love this example and exactly what I'm looking for. Question: we've been using GIFs for very brief software demos but are now being told that GIFs are not considered accessible.
What is the Articulate team's approach to this? Thanks in advance!
Karen—this is a great question! Here at Articulate (and in the E-Learning Heroes community), we love using GIFs, too! As a best practice, for any GIFs that are longer than 5 seconds, you need to give learners (or readers) a way to pause the media. In newer ELH articles, you'll notice that our GIFs are now looping videos (here's an example article: https://community.articulate.com/articles/7-reasons-stakeholders-love-review-360). You should be able to use any screen recording software (Peek 360 is perfect for this!) to record your "GIF," and then upload your video to a video-hosting platform where you can choose relevant settings (like looping the video).
I hope this is helpful! In the meantime, we'll make sure to update the GIFs in this article and example project :) Let us know if you... Expand

Thanks for that, Madison! We're using Rise, so how would we do looping videos? Would we have to use Vimeo, for example, to do that in Rise? Currently, we use Camtasia to record demos so I'll look into that.
Does Rise have this ability?
Thanks again! It's the right road to go down if we want to have gifs AND be a11y!
Hi Sonam! I'm so glad you found this example helpful! I believe this is the only Rise 360 software training example we have right now. But, if you're looking for more inspiration, I'd recommend posting in our Building Better Courses forum (https://community.articulate.com/forums/building-better-courses) to see if any other community members have some projects/ templates they may be willing to share!
Really like the use of GIFs. I'm interested to know what you use to create such high-quality GIFs? How did you get a screen recording into a GIF and still keep so much quality? Thanks!
Hi Lewin! I often use Zight to quickly create GIFs that I use in my projects: https://zight.com/gif-maker/
Alternatively, I've had great success when using video to create the "illusion" of a GIF. You can use any video creation software (I usually use Peek 360). From there, I upload the .mp4 to a video hosting site like Wistia that allows me to adjust the video settings. I can set the video to continuously loop and autoplay so it appears like a GIF! To see an example of what I mean, take a look at the "GIFs" in this article. They're actually just continuous videos: https://community.articulate.com/articles/8-business-use-cases-for-microlearning
I enjoyed your training and it gave me some ideas for a series I am working on! I didn't know that you can lock down quizzes and activities to make them required! I also didn't know that you could set a passing score. Is there a way to require learners to recomplete the quiz if they don't pass? Are results tabulated? Thank you!
Hi Mary Ellen! I'm so glad this example gave you some inspiration :)
You can easily set up your Rise 360 quiz to ensure that learners receive a passing score before they continue on. By default, learners will also have unlimited chances to retry the quiz, but you can also customize this with a simple dropdown. To find these adjustable settings, simply edit an existing quiz lesson > click Settings in the upper right-hand corner. To see all the available quiz settings, check out this article: https://articulate.com/support/article/Rise-Quiz-Settings
As for the results, if a learner takes a Rise 360 quiz multiple times, the most recent quiz score is sent to your LMS upon exit. I'll post some helpful articles below that talk about Rise 360 quiz data and completion statuses!

Hi David! I’m glad you found the example helpful :) It’s been quite a while since I originally created this course, but if I remember correctly I think it initially took me about a week to create this course. Keep in mind, I wasn’t solely focused on course creation during that time (I had other responsibilities and tasks that I was juggling). All that to say, I think the majority of my time was focused on creating the content plan and assets (recording GIFs, taking screenshots, etc.). Putting it all together in Rise 360 was quite easy!
