Alternatives to Process Blocks?
I'm experiencing a creative block. I've been working on e-learning content that is largely process based - so lots of step-by-step, screenshots, etc. I've relied heavily on the process block and the image carousel so far, and I'm wondering what other folks have done to create engaging process content without relying on just clicking through images. I'm open to all suggestions, as I am pretty comfortable with Storyline, but I'm really looking for some inspiration for Rise360.Best Fonts to Use
Hi, I'm brand new to Articulate and I have a few trainings I created using Canva that I rather not completely rebuild. When I upload the deck to Storyline there are a few fonts from Canva that Storyline doesn't have. Is there a list of acceptable fonts that I can find somewhere? TIA :) NovaNaeHow to Indicate Audio is Available to the User
We are looking for some guidance/best practices on informing the user when audio is available: When audio contains more details than displayed on the screen. How do you let your users know that? For example, if the block has header, (small paragraph of info), then list of bullet items followed by the audio at the bottom. I saw the attached note in a training and love it but it doesn't meet our question. Also, do you suggest something used throughout the course or just on the intro slide? Thank you!Stress Simplified: E-Learning Merge Shapes Challenge
Feel free to rate how my Rise e-learning came together! Focused on using various merge shapes for both design and infographic purposes, all with a dark mode Miami vice color scheme! See the course review here. Here is the course intro: Stress is an inevitable aspect of our lives, whether it is in or out of the workplace. Though many of us have an idea of how we should approach stressful situations, many of us struggle to cope effectively. In order to avoid internalizing that negativity or turning towards unhealthy outlets (like procrastinating, addictions or overeating)—typically making our stress worse. In this course, we’ll explore the science of stress and learn how to easily identify stress patterns in ourselves. The primary goal of this training is for you to gain the confidence you need to regain control of your day-to-day, no matter what stressors you are up against in or out of the workplace.

Hello Articulate Community, I’m reaching out to connect with fellow learning designers, educators, and organizations exploring fresh ways to drive professional development through impactful e-learning. I’m an Instructional Designer based in Dubai, specializing in designing and developing training solutions and digital learning experiences using Articulate tools. Over the years, I’ve had the opportunity to scale large-scale training programs across the UAE, particularly in the financial sector, including banks and insurance companies. What makes my approach unique is the balance between instructional creativity and scalability. I’ve not only crafted engaging modules but also rolled out end-to-end learning journeys, covering classroom, digital, and blended formats, ensuring they align with compliance standards, industry regulations, and organizational goals. Some areas I’m passionate about include: Designing custom e-learning modules (SCORM-compliant) that seamlessly integrate into existing LMS. Building training frameworks that can scale from a single team to entire institutions. Creating learning content that bridges complex financial concepts with learner-friendly, practical delivery. I’m now exploring freelance opportunities to collaborate with organizations that want to reimagine their learning, scale their programs, and maximize learner engagement. If your organization is looking for instructional design expertise with proven UAE financial sector experience, I’d be happy to connect and discuss how we can work together. Feel free to reach out here or connect directly. Looking forward to learning and collaborating with this inspiring community!PowerPoint Meets AI: Testing 5 Motion Models
When it comes to adding AI motion, many designers bounce from one model to the next, often frustrated by strange results. Some eLearning apps don’t give the motion we want natively, and others take too long to configure, making it hard to know where to start. So, I tested 5 AI models on the same slide with the same prompt to see how each performed. The results were surprising: one nailed the physics, another went off into odd morphs, and a few missed the mark entirely. The lesson? Every model has strengths, but the right fit depends on your design goals and willingness to experiment.
