TSA Dishes on Thanksgiving Food
Almost all of the script is from the TSA.gov site about Thanksgiving food 😁 Every eLearning challenge helps me learn more about creating prompts for consistent images and videos. It's easier to be consistent with images created by Gemini AI because I can say "Keep everything the same and..." add, remove, etc. Unfortunately, I can't do that with Gemini AI videos 😢 I wanted to use the same TSA agent for the entire course but Gemini AI had other plans, so I leaned into it, using a different agent for each sentence or phrase. Another challenge: Gemini AI limits videos to 8 seconds and only three a day (what do you want for free?). I did use Articulate AI for some narration and images. And, I referred back to the tutorial "5 Ways to Customize Drag-and-Drop Interactions" to get just the right drag-and-drop interaction for the review. Enjoy!

Check out this engaging drag and drop interaction for the challenge of the week, How to Get Through Airport Screening Faster. It's a fun way to reveal content than the traditional click and reveal.

Hello! I like to mimic real-life machinery, dials, switches, and buttons in eLearning where it's appropriate. Sometimes learning by doing can be very literal. But these features can also impact #accessibility. In this week's coffee-themed demo, I have ensured the drag and drop, slider and dial interactions are also accessible from the keyboard. All of the vectors in this week's demo were 'handmade' in PowerPoint and Storyline using the 'merge shapes' feature. Most of my time was spent making sure the interactions perform as intended when the keyboard is used instead of a mouse. But I'm pretty pleased with the overall effect. What do you think? PLAY HERE
Magical Coffee-Bar: Fan-Inspired Drink Simulator
Articulate Challenge #524 – How to Brew the Best Coffee & Espresso Drinks Welcome to the Crossroads Cafe, a whimsical drag-and-drop interaction where learners take on the role of a barista serving enchanted drinks to guests from across fictional universes. ☕ Project Concept In this interactive experience, players are left in charge of a magical coffee shop after the senior barista is called away on urgent business. One by one, guests arrive — each inspired by beloved characters from books, shows, and movies — and place their orders for fan-favorite drinks like Butterbeer, Blue Milk, and Miruvor. 🎮 Gameplay Drag & Drop Mechanics: Learners select ingredients and place them into a mug in the correct order. Hints Available: A recipe card is available for reference if the learner needs help. Serve & Feedback: Once the drink is assembled, the learner presses “Serve” and receives themed feedback from the guest — magical praise or playful critique. Progress Tracking: The game tracks how many drinks were made correctly, with a final summary and stylized feedback. 🎨 Design Style Classic 2D animation inspired by mid-20th century cartoons Watercolor textures with bold outlines Magical UI elements and whimsical decor Custom illustrations for guests and environment 🧙♂️ Senior Barista’s Message “Ah, welcome, apprentice! The guests are lining up, and the steam is rising — it’s time to brew some magic. Drag the correct ingredients into the mug, press ‘Serve’ when ready, and consult the recipe card if you need a hint.

View the example. Description: Taking inspiration from the "movie" theme, here's my take on using interactive video in an e-learning course. It challenges the user to watch a movie clip and determine the camera angle used when filming. It also utilizes a simple drag/drop feature to determine correct/incorrect responses.

This quick tip is really handy for showing learners exactly how many attempts they have left and providing specific feedback for each missed attempt. And since we’re counting attempts, we’ll need some help from Storyline’s number variables.
